Proportional Pressure Regulator

Piezotronic technology has also been applied to proportional regulator units offering many advantages. Conventional pressure regulators comprise a pressure sensor measuring the outlet pressure, and providing a feedback signal to an amplifier. This signal is then compared to the control signal and the difference is converted to a digital signal, which energises one or the other of 2 internal two-way solenoid valves. With this type of regulator there is a large consumption of air when the valve exhausts through one of the solenoid valves to achieve the required output. The response times are poor and because the 2 solenoid valves are constantly being used, the service life can be low. 

The Hoerbiger Tecno regulator uses their piezo valve as its pilot unit, providing a fast and highly dynamic pilot signal. The piezo valve is driven via an integrated miniature pressure regulator and fine filter. The output then operates a proportional diaphragm pressure regulator, with two separate seats for pressurising and venting. The outlet pressure is compared with the set pressure via a pressure sensor and is constantly corrected by the electronic system resulting in:

·          Higher Accuracy

·          Responsiveness <0.1%

·          Reaction times of <7ms

·          Long Service Life

·          Low power consumption
