Overview
The Airtrol RV-5200-60 relief valve is a miniature pressure control device engineered for industrial pneumatic applications requiring precise regulation in the 1–150 PSI operating range. The RV-5200 and RV-5300 Series function as a miniature relief valve or low-flow back pressure regulator. This unit combines compact design with high repeatability, making it suitable for OEM equipment, process control systems, and maintenance applications where space and accuracy are critical.
Key Features
- Operates as either a relief valve or low flow back pressure regulator
- Temperature range 40–150°F (4–66°C)
- Repeatability < +/- 1% full scale
- Non-rising stem adjustment, available with attractive knob, plain for OEM installation, or flush for back-panel applications
- Miniature size suitable for confined spaces and compact manifolds
- Wetted materials: Polysulfone, Silicone, Buna-N
Technical Specifications
- Supply Pressure Range: 1–150 PSI
- Adjustment Type: Non-rising stem
- Temperature Operating Range: 40–150°F (4–66°C)
- Repeatability: < ±1% FS
- Wetted Materials: Polysulfone, Silicone, Buna-N
- Flow Capacity (10-32 port): 0.6 CFM (16 LPM) @ 30 PSI set
- Flow Capacity (1/8 NPT port): 0.7 CFM (19 LPM) @ 30 PSI set
- Suitable Medium: Compressed air and inert gases
Typical Applications
A typical application would be the use of a unit between a compressor and a load to prevent the compressor from “loading up” when dead-ended. Additional uses include:
- Compressor load control and pressure limiting
- Pneumatic circuit sequencing and protection
- OEM equipment pressure regulation
- Low-flow pilot-operated backpressure regulation
- Machine tool and manufacturing system pressure management
Compatibility & Replacements
Compatible With
- Standard compressed air systems operating 1–150 PSI
- Pneumatic control circuits using 10-32 or 1/8 NPT connections
- Manifold-mounted and panel-mounted pneumatic control systems
- Industrial compressors and pneumatic load equipment
- Systems requiring non-bleed relief valve functionality
Replaces / Drop-In Replacement For
The RV-5200-60 directly replaces other RV-5200 Series units with the same -60 pressure setting (60 PSI set-point). Verify compatibility with your system integrator before ordering to confirm knob style (W/K, W/S, WO/S) matches your equipment requirements.
Works With
- Barbed miniature fittings (Airtrol B-062, B-125, and equivalent)
- Standard NPT threaded port adapters
- Pneumatic manifold platforms and sandwich-mounted configurations
- Manual and automated pressure control systems
- Compressed air quality grade per ISO 8573
