Control Air Type 6100/6200 High Flow Capacity Volume Booster
The Type 6100 aluminum volume booster and 6200 stainless steel volume booster is a 1:1 signal to output relays that are utilized in applications that require high forward airflow and exhaust capacities. The Type 6200 is constructed of 316 stainless steel to ensure the best resistance to corrosive environments. Typically they are used to increase the throttling speed of large volume valve actuators. They are suitable for either diaphragm or piston actuators. A fixed deadband and adjustable bypass valve combine to allow small incremental downstream adjustment without opening the main booster valve. The bypass valve is used to adjust dynamic response to provide stable operation over a wide range of actuator sizes. Negative Bias adjustment (up to -4 psi) is available to “zero” downstream pressures when using standard signal pressure ranges.
