PRODUCT OVERVIEW
GB-K-75 and GB-K-152 are gas booster packages intended to be used to provide the gas pressure
supplies required by
DHI
PPCK+ controller/calibrators for high pressure gas.
Both models include a pneumatically driven, piston type, self-cycling gas booster with regulated
output to provide the PPCK+ high pressure supply. The gas booster boosts a lower pressure (3.5
MPa minimum), generally supplied from a bottle to higher pressure. The high pressure gas is stored
in an accumulator volume to assure stable supply to the PPCK+. GB-K-75 has a maximum output
pressure of 50 MPa (7 500 psi) and is used with PPCK+ A3000 and A6000. GB-K-152 has a
maximum output of 76 MPa (11 000 psi) and is used with PPCK+ A10000.
Both models also include an independent low pressure regulator and gauge to supply the PPCK+
drive air requirement.
With a GB-K gas booster, all of the PPCK+ pressure supply requirements are taken care of in one
simple package requiring on the connection of a clean gas source of 2 MPa (300 psi) or higher clean
compressed gas source and a shop air supply to power the booster.
