Product catalog summary
Overview of QBT and QBS Series:
The document provides detailed specifications and operational guidelines for the QBT and QBS series of precision pressure control devices by Proportion-Air. These devices are designed for controlling pressure from vacuum levels up to 300 psi (21 bar) for QBT and up to 500 psi (35 bar) for QBS.

Key Features:
  • Both series are unaffected by shock, vibration, and supply pressure changes, and feature IP65 enclosures for durability.
  • They are non-air consuming in a steady state, reducing manufacturing costs.
  • Both can be mounted in any orientation and come with required filtration.

QBT Series:
  • Designed for inert gases with a maximum pressure of 300 psig (21 bar).
  • Features include easy tuning of Zero & Span calibration potentiometers and a wide range of electrical control inputs and analog outputs.

QBS Series:
  • Available in anodized aluminum or stainless steel for enhanced media compatibility.
  • Includes a solid one-piece manifold and a stainless steel pressure sensor using dry technology for increased reliability.

Theory of Operation:
  • The QB1 model uses a single loop control scheme with solenoid valves for inlet and exhaust control, maintaining pressure through feedback from an internal pressure transducer.
  • The QB2 model employs a double loop control scheme, incorporating feedback from an external sensor for more versatile control over parameters like force and position.

Specifications:
  • Operating temperature ranges from 32ºF to 158ºF (0ºC to 70ºC).
  • Pressure ranges are customer specified, with QBT up to 300 psig and QBS up to 500 psig.
  • Electrical supply voltage ranges from 15VDC to 24VDC.

Performance Characteristics:
  • Includes charts showing linearity and response to step inputs, illustrating the device's performance under various conditions.

Ordering Information:
  • Details on available accessories, mounting brackets, and power cords.
  • Options for digital displays, manifold materials, and command input types.

Warranty and Safety:
  • Proportion-Air offers a one-year warranty against defects, with limitations on liability for improper installation or filtration.
  • Installation should be supervised by qualified personnel to avoid risks.
