Model Series 66 Amplifying and Reducing Relays 

 

INTRODUCTION 

 
The Model Series 66 Amplifying and Reducing Relays are used in control circuit to amplify and reduce pneumatic 
signals. The output of a relay is proportional to its input by the fixed gain factor of that relay model. 
 
This instruction has six major sections: Introduction, Installation, Principle of Operation, Maintenance, Warranty, 
and Parts List.
