.Construction and Operating Principle
①
By turning handle
②
clockwise, force of set spring
③
pushes down diaphragm
④
and main valve so
that VAC. Pressure side and SET. Pressure side are connected, which increases vacuum on
SET. Pressure side (become closer to absolute vacuum).
⑥
Vacuum pressure on SET. Pressure side passes air pass, goes to vacuum chamber and acts
③
on the top of diaphragm . This pressure opposes compression force of set
②
spring and
becomes SET. Pressure.
When vacuum SET. Pressure becomes higher than the set value (closer to absolute vacuum),
②
⑥
balance of set spring and SET. Pressure in vacuum chamber is lost. Because of this,
③
④
diaphragm is pushed up so that main valve c
⑤
loses and atmosphere suction valve opens.
Atmosphere flows in SET. Pressure and becomes SET. Pressure when compression force of set
②
Spring balances with SET. Pressure.
When vacuum of SET. Pressure becomes lower than the set value (closer to atmospheric

④
pushed down. Atmosphere suction valve closes and main valve opens, and air is sucked to VAC.
Pressure side. It becomes SET. Pressure when compression force o
