Bar Pressure Booster

The Bar Pressure Amplificator Multibar is a high-performance solution designed to boost pneumatic pressure in industrial applications. By utilising a sophisticated internal mechanism, it effectively multiplies inlet pressure to deliver a significantly higher output, ensuring optimal performance for systems requiring enhanced force without the need for additional compressors.

Key Features

Key features and benefits of Bar Pressure Booster.
1

Key Features

Increased Air Pressure Output – The BAR Pressure Booster efficiently amplifies incoming air pressure, providing a higher output to meet the demands of pneumatic actuators, control valves, and industrial automation systems. This ensures that equipment requiring higher pressure levels can operate without the need for larger air compressors, improving efficiency and reducing energy consumption.

Key Features

Compact & Durable Design – Built for demanding industrial environments, the BAR Pressure Booster features a compact, lightweight construction without compromising durability. Manufactured with high-quality materials, it withstands harsh conditions, heavy-duty operations, and continuous use, ensuring long-term reliability and low maintenance requirements.

Multi-Bar Pressure Amplifier – Maximising Pneumatic Actuator Performance

The Multi-Bar Pressure Amplifier is an advanced solution designed to double the torque of pneumatic actuators without requiring any additional external energy. By effectively increasing available control pressure, this system enhances actuator performance, making it ideal for demanding industrial applications where higher force is needed without upgrading to a larger actuator.

Optimised Air Pressure for Greater Efficiency

The pressure amplification process occurs seamlessly, ensuring enhanced actuator output without compromising system efficiency. For control pressures above 5 bar, the outlet pressure is regulated to a maximum of 10 bar, preventing excessive force while maintaining precise and controlled operation.

Cost-Saving Benefits

One of the key advantages of the Multi-Bar Pressure Amplifier is its ability to maximise performance while reducing equipment costs. Instead of using a larger and more expensive pneumatic actuator, a smaller, lower-cost actuator can achieve the same level of valve control. This allows for significant cost savings on both equipment and energy consumption, making it a highly efficient and economical solution for process automation, valve control, and pneumatic systems.
