6.3.4 Tuning the Pressure Balance of

Control Relay

When you use a double-acting cylinder actuator,

adjust the pressure balance of the control relay, if

necessary.
The optimal point of pressure balance slightly differs

depending on the packing and load characteristics

of the cylinders used, but in general, approx. 50

to 90% of the supply air pressure is said to be

appropriate.
The pressure balance of the YVP110 is set to

approx. 75% at the time of shipment.
It is possible to reduce the hunting phenomenon

and air consumption by adjusting the balance

pressure.
However, if the pneumatic piping is connected to

the valve actuator, the pressure of a cylinder on one

side becomes higher, and the balance cannot be

maintained.
If you want to increase the balance pressure,

turn the screw for adjusting the balance pressure

(shown in Figure 6.6) counterclockwise. If you want

to decrease the balance pressure, turn the screw

clockwise. At this time, you do must not to loosen

the screw beside the adjustment screw.

Do not loosen this screw
