Low Pressure Relieving Regulator

Back Pressure Regulator controls to 0.02 psig

Equilibar offers a regulator that controls pressure in the millibar range with extremely high sensitivity and stability.

Unlike traditional pressure reducing regulators that open to increase pressure, these relieving-type or backpressure-type regulators open up to reduce pressure.

Equilibar’s relieving back pressure regulators are dome-loaded and use a 1:1 air pilot pressure on their dome to communicate the set-point. The set-point signal can be communicated by either manual or electro-pneumatic pilot regulator.

Relieving pressure regulators are available in a wide range of sizes:

The following chart illustrates the ability of the Equilibar back pressure regulator to control in the range of 3 inWC (inches of H2O).

A deep dive into Equilibar's research applications

March is here, and that means it’s time to focus on the phenomenal work being done by Equilibar’s research customers. Why March? The tradition began as a spinoff from Equilibar’s March Madness bracket contest.  One year, we thought it would be fun to see how many universities competing in the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament were Read More
