David Reed is President of Equilibar and has more than 30 years of experience in the pressure control industry. His practical videos demonstrating fluid control technology have attracted a strong following on YouTube. In this video, David explains how a BPR can be used to control the flow of a non-positive displacement pump and when an engineer should consider this option. While the video uses an Equilibar back pressure regulator to illustrate the method, almost any BPR would work in a similar fashion.

how the Equilibar valve works in pressure reducing control

For complex applications, Equilibar® valves can provide reliable pressure-reducing control

Equilibar’s multiple orifice diaphragm technology has become a favorite for providing back pressure control, vacuum control, and flow control, but in certain applications it can also provide distinct advantages as a pressure reducing valve (PRV) that is able to perform where conventional valves cannot. Equilibar devices excel in pressure-reducing applications that push far beyond the Read More
