ABSTRACT:
The vacuum for controlling tape loop tension in a magnetic tape handler is supplied by a low speed multiple stage vacuum blower and controlled by a low power solenoid and a flapper valve operated between two predetermined positions. In order to provide fast operation of the flapper valve in response to the low power solenoid a fast acting fluid amplifier is utilized between the solenoid and the flapper valve. The elimination of belts, gears and high speed blowers results in an unusually quiet system.
