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 2-stage 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 2-stage 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.
