Type 250 - Lock-Up Air Relay

Product catalog summary
Overview: The ControlAir Type 250 Lock-up Air Relay is designed for fail-in-place applications, ensuring control valves maintain position when air supply pressure drops below acceptable levels. It captures air pressure within the actuator's diaphragm chamber or piston cylinder.
Features:
  • Two pressure ranges: 15-60 psig (1-4 BAR) and 30-120 psig (2-8 BAR).
  • Manual relief valve for system bleed down.
  • Corrosion-resistant construction with options for aluminum or 304 stainless steel.
  • Standard mounting bracket for easy installation.
  • No leakage in lock-up position.
Operation Principles: The relay traps air pressure when supply pressure falls below a set value, adjustable via a spring adjusting screw. The factory set points are 20 psig (1.4 BAR) for the 15-60 psig range and 85 psig (5.8 BAR) for the 30-120 psig range.
Specifications:
  • Port size: 1/4" NPT.
  • Cut-off pressure range: 15-60 psig (1-4 BAR) or 30-120 psig (2-8 BAR).
  • Maximum supply pressure: 125 psig (8.35 BAR).
  • Temperature limits: 0° to 160°F (-18° to 71°C).
  • Weight: Aluminum - 2.1 lbs (0.95 kg), Stainless Steel - 4 lbs (1.8 kg).
  • Materials: Housing - Aluminum or 304 Stainless Steel, Diaphragm - Nitrile/Nylon, Spring - Plated Steel, Plug - Stainless Steel/Nitrile, Trim - Stainless Steel, Bracket - Plated Steel or 304 Stainless Steel.
Warranty: Products are warranted for 18 months from the sale date against defects in materials and workmanship, with liability limited to repair, refund, or replacement.
Adjustment Instructions: To adjust the cut-off set point, remove the cap and turn the spring adjusting screw. Clockwise increases the setting, counter-clockwise decreases it. Ensure the manual relief valve is open when operating the control valve handwheel to prevent diaphragm damage.

Type 250 - Lock-Up Air Relay-1

The ControlAir Type 250 Lockup Air Relay is a reliable unit for fail in place applications of control valves when air supply drops below acceptable pressure levels. Valve or damper position is maintained by capturing air pressure inside the diaphragm chamber (or piston cylinder) of the actuator, when the supply pressure falls below the desired set value. F E A T U R E S • Two Pressure Ranges Available • Manual Relief Valve Allows system bleed down • Corrosion-Resistant Construction • Aluminum or 304 Stainless Steel Material Option • Mounting Bracket Standard for Ease of Installation • No Leakage in Lock-up Position Reliability for fail in place applications

Type 250 - Lock-Up Air Relay-2

The Type-250 Lock-up Air Relay is designed so that when the supply air pressure falls below a set value (cut-off point) the unit traps the air pressure in the diaphragm chamber of the actuator. The cut-off set point is set to a desired value by compressing the spring adjusting screw. The cut-off set point is adjustable and is generally set at a higher value than required for operation of the control valve. If the control pressure is 3-15 psig (0.2-1.0 BAR), the cut-off set point could be set at 20 psig (1.35 BAR), for example. C U T- O F F S E T T I N G Cut-off set point value has been factory...
