Working Principle
The IN air passes through the check valve to booster chambers A and B. Meanwhile, air is supplied to drive chamber B via the governor and
the switching valve. Then, the air pressure from drive chamber B and booster chamber A are applied to the piston, boosting the air in booster
chamber B. As the piston travels, the boosted air is pushed via the check valve to the OUT side. When the piston reaches to the end, the piston
causes the switching valve to switch, so that drive chamber B is in the exhaust state and drive chamber A is in the supply state respectively.
Then, the piston reverses its movement, this time, the pressures from booster chamber B and drive chamber A boosts the air in booster
chamber A and sends it to the OUT side. The process described above is repeated to continuously supply highly pressurized air from the IN to
the OUT side. The governor establishes the outlet pressure by handle operation and pressure adjustment in the drive chamber by feeding back
the outlet pressure.

Circuit Example
• When only some of the machines in the plant require high-pressure
• When charging a tank or the like from a source at atmospheric
air, booster regulators can be installed for only the equipment that
requires it. This allows the overall system to use low-pressure air
while accommodating machines requiring high-pressure air.
pressure, a circuit with a check valve can be used to reduce the
charge time by allowing air to pass through the check valve up to
the inlet pressure.
