Product Description:
The Fairchild 20812 Model 20 Volume Booster is a smaller pneumatic device manufactured by Fairchild Products. It is designed to provide high flow and exhaust capacity. The booster utilizes a force balance system to control the movement of the supply and exhaust valves. It is equipped with a pilot-operated regulator design, allowing it to handle supply pressures up to 150 psig (10 BAR) and providing ten available ratios for a wide range of applications. The Model 20 Booster has a flow capacity of 45 SCFM (76.5m3/Hr) and a Cv factor of approximately 1.0 in forward mode, making it suitable for various pneumatic volume boosting needs.
Key Features of the Fairchild 20812 Model 20 Volume Booster include:
- Fast and responsive operation
- Ability to suit downstream pressure requirements
- Tuning capability for optimum dynamic response (1:1 ratio only) and cycle-free operation with valve positioners
- Compatibility with pneumatic signal devices that cannot be adjusted to zero signal pressure
- Elimination of hunting and buzzing
- Easy installation in the field
- Option for servicing the Model 20 using a Service Kit without removal from the line.
