This equipment described in this manual is designed and manufactured for the intended purpose of generating high pressure gas. Certain precautions need to be followed during installation and operation of this device. Reading and understanding this material is essential to the safe and correct operation of the unit.
Pressurized equipment is potentially dangerous. The equipment described in this manual generates and
controls very high gas pressures. It should not be operated by anyone who has not become thoroughly familiar with this manual. Additional training in general and pressure specific safety procedures will help assure protection from harm or damage to personnel or property. Responsibility for the proper and safe operation of this instrument rests with the user.
High pressure liquids and gases are potentially hazardous. Energy stored in these liquids and gases
can be released unexpectedly and with extreme force. High pressure systems should be assembled and
operated only by personnel who have been instructed in proper safety practices.
This instrument is not to be operated in any other manner than that specified by the manufacturer.

1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 PRODUCT OVERVIEW

The GB-152-AF gas booster with control kit is intended to provide very high pressure gas supply in a PGC-10000-AF Pneumatic Gauge Calibration System.
The GB-152-AF includes a pneumatically driven, piston type, self-cycling gas booster. The gas booster boosts a lower pressure, generally supplied from a bottle (300 psi (20 MPa) minimum), to higher pressure. The booster is powered by drive air. The high pressure output is approximately equal to the drive air input times the nominal boosting ratio of 152. In the PGC-10000-AF system, the high pressure output is connected to the SUPPLY port of a GPC1-10000-AF Gas Pressure Controller.
The GB-152 also includes a drive air control kit and interconnecting tubing. The kit is on a bracket that can be mounted at a convenient location remote from the booster itself.
