The Pneumatic Remote-Controlled Valve/ Remote-Controlled Regulator (RCV/RCR), is designed for when a dependable permanent remote-mount installation is required. This model requires no electrical to operate. The RCV/RCR can be installed either onto the end of a cylinder or remote mounted on a bulkhead, downstream from the cylinder, if space is an issue. The RCR provides 42 liters per minute (lpm) of O2 flow volume at 18 psi dynamic. Enough oxygen flow for up to 8 places. The RCV can accommodate a second RCR, allowing the combination to work for a 16-person installation. The RCV/RCR can be installed onto any aluminum, Kevlar, carbon and silica-glass composite cylinders that have a standard 3/4″-16 outlet thread, all of which we carry.
This RCV unit has a built-in pneumatic actuating piston that allows remote operation of the RCV by two basic pneumatic means. They are: (1) an external pressure supply of about 2 bars (30) psig.) being applied to the actuation port of the actuating manifold on the RCV, (2) the screw-on pilot regulator, calibrated to 2 bars (30 psig.), providing the actuating pressure in which a simple 3-way valve is plumbed and remotely mounted to operate the RCV unit.
