Type-6000 Volume Booster-1

Volume Booster High Flow Capacity in a Rugged Aluminum or Stainless Steel Casing The Type 6000 Volume Booster is a one-to-one signal to output relay that, when used with a positioner/actuator, is designed to increase the stroking speed of control valves. An integral bypass valve allows you to tailor the output force to meet the application requirements. Large signal changes to the booster can deliver high volume, fast action throttling control while smaller signal changes are dampened. When used with on/off control valves, the bypass can be closed for increased stroking speed. The T6000 is available in aluminum or stainless steel construction. • Fast Response Delivers high air volume for rapid actuator stroking • Adjustable Bypass Valve Tunes unit response to eliminate actuator overshoot 'Soft Seat Sealing Provides tight shutoff to reduce costly air consumption • Corrosion and Wear Resistant Construction Stainless steel external trim and internal wear parts • Available in Aluminum or Stainless Steel 1/2" or 3/4" NPT supply and output ports Body/Bonnet/Spacer: Aluminum or 316 Stainless Steel Nitrile / Nylon Stainless Steel / Nitrile Seat Ring: Brass or Stainless Steel Stainless Steel Bypass Valve: Stainless Steel Note: Versions available with EPDM elastomers and stainless steel Internals. Consult factory for availability.
