HANUMAN Services
Booster valve is a type of hydraulic or pneumatic valve used to amplify or control pressure, flow, or force in a system. It is commonly used in applications where the primary system pressure is insufficient to perform a specific task, and additional pressure or force is required. Booster valves are often found in industrial machinery, automotive systems, and aerospace applications.
HANUMAN can offer you with a full range of pressure control equipment, especially booster valve and air tank, with optional accessories of silencer, elbow, and pressure gauge.
VBA40A-F04GN Pneumatic Pressure Control Air Booster Regulating Valve
Working principle
The booster valve amplifies pressure through a piston or diaphragm mechanism:
The input pressure acts on a larger surface area, resulting in a higher output pressure (acting on a smaller area).
Utilize the principle of force amplification to achieve pressure increase (2 times the boost ratio).
Applications
Industrial machinery: stamping machines, clamping systems, lifting equipment.
Automotive systems: brake assist, power steering.
Aerospace: Landing gear hydraulic actuators.
Construction machinery: hydraulic systems for excavators and cranes.
Pressure Increase and Adjustment Details
This valve can boost the local line pressure without the need for additional power sources. It offers a pressure increase ratio of 2 times, which is highly beneficial for applications where a significant pressure boost is required. The output pressure can be easily adjusted using the knob – operated mechanism. The set pressure range is 0.2 to 1.0 MPa, and the supply pressure range is 0.1 to 1.0 MPa, providing flexibility in different system setups.
Applicable Fluids
The VBA40A-F04GN is designed specifically for use with compressed air. Its internal components are engineered to withstand the properties of compressed air, ensuring efficient and reliable operation in pneumatic systems.
Installation and Orientation
For optimal performance, it should be installed horizontally. This orientation helps in maintaining the proper functioning of its internal mechanisms, such as the floating piston. The valve is also relatively easy to install, which is an advantage for both new installations and replacements in existing systems.
Weight and Dimensions
Weighing around 8.6 kg, the VBA40A-F04GN has a certain heft to it, which is a sign of its robust construction. Regarding dimensions, while specific values aren’t provided in the initial description, it’s important to note that its size, combined with the added elbow silencer for space – saving installation, makes it suitable for applications where space might be a constraint.

Flow Rate/Pressure/Charge
The VBA40A – F04GN features an impressive flow rate of 1900l/min. It can boost pressure with a 2 – times increase ratio. The input pressure range typically aligns with most standard pneumatic systems, and the output pressure can be precisely adjusted via its knob – operated mechanism. Regarding charging, the valve operates directly on compressed air, eliminating the need for external power charging.
Overall Dimensions (mm)
Though the exact dimensions of the VBA40A – F04GN haven’t been mentioned in the initial description, its design incorporates an elbow silencer. This space – saving design ensures that it fits well even in areas with limited space. Whether installed in industrial machinery, automotive systems, aerospace equipment, or construction machinery, its dimensions are optimized for practical use.
HANUMAN, in addition to providing the valve, can also offer maintenance support. The valve has a built – in mesh filter at the IN port, which may need periodic cleaning to ensure continued reliable operation. In case of any wear and tear, replacement parts are available. For example, kits containing essential replacement items like piston seals, governor assemblies, and check valves can be ordered, allowing for easy maintenance and ensuring the long – term functionality of the valve.
