Omtec Corp’s PBT-1 Pop-Up Ball Transfer Units rely on filtered, regulated, and lubricated compressed air for proper operation, like most pneumatic components. To meet these needs, Omtec provides FRL kits, non-detent foot valve kits, and detent toggle hand valve kits. Additionally, they can supply other control devices upon request. For optimal performance, you should set the regulator at 50 PSI (3.447 bar).

Omtec pop-up ball transfer units use extremely low air volume, making air consumption rarely a concern. For example, each up-and-down cycle of one ball only uses 0.00038 cubic feet (0.0000108 cubic meters) of air. Moreover, almost any air control device can operate these units. In most cases, simple non-electric foot and hand valves are sufficient, though electric solenoid controls can be used when paired with sensing devices.

The PBT-1 features precise dimensions designed for versatility. The ball has a diameter of 1 inch, while the can’s diameter is 1.562 inches. The flange diameter measures 1.850 inches. These dimensions make the PBT-1 suitable for a wide range of applications. When your project requires reliable and efficient ball transfers, choose Omtec for trusted performance and quality solutions.
