The Fairchild 25 Reversing Relay provides and output which will decrease in direct proportion to an increase in input pressure. The Model 25 is ideally suited for a variety of precision control applications, including converting direct acting valves to recerse action, controlling opposite acting valves from a single transmitter, and cushioning cylinder loads.

Features

• High strength, deep convolution compensating diaphragm.
• Bottom pressure balancing chamber with a diaphragm.
• Floating seal ring.
• Balances undesira ble relief seat forces.
• Ensures balanced supply seat forces.
• Protects stabilizing chamber from effect of high relief flows.

Operating Principles

The Fairchild 25 Reversing Relay is designed for applications requiring an output that equals a manually preset spring load minus a variable signal pressure. This high quality unit combines excellent sensitivity with unusually high flow capacity.

The Fairchild 25 is ideally suited for a variety of precision control applications, including converting direct acting valves to reverse action, controlling opposite acting valves from a single transmitter, and cushioning cylinder loads.

The basic mathematical expression for the Fairchild 25 is PO = K - PS where PO is output pressure, PS is signal pressure and K is the spring constant.
