Swagelok® Process Regulators, Back-Pressure, Dome-Loaded
Dome-loaded process regulators minimize droop and provide highly stable outlet pressures regardless of inlet pressure or flow variations.
Get Help with Process RegulatorsBack-pressure process regulators are suitable for a wide variety of industrial applications where manual or remote operation of the regulator is suitable. Dome-loaded process regulators excel at maintaining consistent outlet pressures, even when faced with fluctuations in inlet pressure or flow. This stability is achieved through a pressurized dome control mechanism, which eliminates the need for a set spring.
These versatile regulators can be customized with various features to meet specific application needs:
- Multiple gauge connection options
- Pilot regulators
- External feedback systems
- Specialized cleaning processes
For enhanced automation, dome-loaded regulators can be paired with electronic pilot valves. This configuration reduces the need for manual adjustments and allows for rapid responses to changing system conditions.
When choosing pressure regulators, ask suppliers about their performance verification methods. Regulators that excel in rigorous testing are more likely to withstand demanding field conditions over time. Precision in regulator design and rigorous laboratory testing can be the decisive factors between triumph and setback.
