|Proposal for the use of booster regulators to reduce pneumatic line pressure
--
- Local pressure increase only where high pressure is required, thereby reducing overall factory pressure
- Application examples of local pressure increase
Low Air Consumption Booster Regulator VBA
Modular F.R.L./Pressure Control Equipment » Booster RegulatorsBooster Regulators » Booster Regulators
-
・Air consumption: Max. 40% reduction (Based on SMC’s measuring
conditions)
Driven by reusing the exhaust air
・Operation noise: 65 dB (A)
15 dB (A) reduction compared with the existing model (VBA series)
(Based on SMC’s measuring conditions)
・Charging time: Max. 50% shorter
・Operating cycles: 50 million cycles or more
Maintenance frequency is reduced due to improved life.
(Based on SMC’s test conditions)
・Compatible with vertical and horizontal installation
・Mounting compatibility with the existing model (VBA series)

・Increase factory air pressure by 4 times!
・Air-only operation requires no power supply, and allows easy installation.
・Air consumption: Max. 25% reduction (Pressure increase ratio: Twice),
Max. 30% reduction (Pressure increase ratio: 4 times)
・Max. flow rate: 10% increase (Pressure increase ratio: Twice),
30% increase (Pressure increase ratio: 4 times)
・Charging time: Max. 30% shorter (Pressure increase ratio: Twice),
Max. 60% shorter (Pressure increase ratio: 4 times)
・Improved service life: 50 million cycles or more
(Pressure increase ratio: Twice, 4 times)
Maintenance frequency is reduced due to improved life.
