Type 72 Positive Bias Booster Pneumatic Air Relay from Marsh Bellofram is a positive bias booster pneumatic relay used when high flow capacity is needed. It comes in four adjustable ranges with remarkably high flow capacity of up to 50 SCFM (1400 LPM) with minimal pressure droop. Output pressure of the Type 72 is precisely maintained under varying flow conditions by means of an aspirator tube, which adjusts the air supply valve opening in proportion to flow velocity.
A balanced supply valve utilizing a Bellofram patented internal rolling diaphragm makes the relay essentially immune to changes in supply pressure, while offering reliable performance over millions of cycles. Simple design makes maintenance simple, and the relay can be serviced without removing it from the line. The standard signal-to-output ratio is 1:1, but 1:2, 1:4 and 1:6 ratios are available on special request.
