Kimray AFZ1 Bellows Controlled High Pressure Pilot

This Kimray AFZ1 Bellows Controlled High Pressure Pilot is a highly versatile and modular solution for a wide range of applications. Designed for ease of use, it offers the flexibility to operate in both direct and indirect modes with simple modifications. It is classified as an intermittent vent (non-bleed) pilot, making it an efficient choice that aligns with most producer’s emissions standards.

Constructed from durable steel and featuring a female NPT connection (0.25″ size), this pilot is built for high-pressure environments, with a max working pressure of 1500 psig and a set point range from 150 psig to 1500 psig. It operates pneumatically, ensuring reliable performance in demanding applications.

What is a Bellows Controlled High Pressure Pilot?

This item is a Bellows Controlled High Pressure Pilot, which is a type of pressure control valve commonly used in industrial applications. It regulates pressure in pneumatic or hydraulic systems, specifically for systems where high pressure needs to be controlled accurately.

Here’s a breakdown of its key features and functionality:

• Pressure Control: The pilot controls or regulates the pressure in a system. It is set to a specific pressure and then either directly or indirectly activates other components of the system to maintain that pressure.

• Modular Design: It’s versatile and can be easily adjusted or modified to meet specific needs, making it flexible for different types of applications.

• Intermittent Venting (Non-Bleed): This means it only vents or releases pressure when necessary, and doesn’t continuously leak, which is more efficient and meets emissions standards set by various producers.

• High Pressure Range: It operates in systems with a pressure range between 150 psig (pounds per square inch gauge) and 1500 psig, which is considered high-pressure for many industrial systems.

• Material & Connection Type: Made of steel for durability, and it connects to systems via a female NPT (National Pipe Thread) fitting, which is common for secure, leak-proof connections.

• Flexibility in Operation: It can be set up to operate in direct mode (where the pilot controls the flow directly) or indirect mode (where it controls other valves indirectly). This is a flexible feature that makes it adaptable for various systems.

In short, this device is a high-pressure pilot control valve that offers precise regulation for complex industrial systems, ensuring that they operate within specified pressure ranges while meeting environmental and emissions standards.
