The pressure booster doubles the system pressure of e.g. 5 bar
to an outlet pressure of 10 bar. The pumping force of two
cylindrical chambers compresses the air to the set outlet
pressure within the third chamber while the fourth chamber is
vented. Upon reaching the outlet pressure it is turned off, when
falling below it is turned on automatically. Pressure boosters
are used for occasional demand of compressed air.
Media: filtered, lubricated and 50 µm filtered compressed air
Mounting_position: any
Drive:
double piston intensifier, ratio 1 to 2
Reversing, check and swichting valves provide for automatic control.
Life time approx. 20 million switching cycles.
Air tanks are recommended. They compensate pressure fluctuations
and allow short-term high volume flows. See circuit.
Tank filling time is a measure of booster performance. To reduce
the filling time of the tank, it has to be prefilled with input
pressure P1. See circuit.
Cylinder: anodized aluminium
Seals: NBR/Buna-N
