Swagelok® Tank Blanketing Pressure Regulators
Designed to maintain constant inert gas pressure in unique applications.
Get Help Selecting RegulatorsSwagelok tank blanketing regulators are crucial for ensuring the safety of operators and bystanders around storage tanks containing hazardous fluids. They maintain consistent pressure levels of inert gases in the vapor space, preventing hazardous vapors from escaping.
Tank blanketing regulators reduce safety risks associated with pressure-sealed tanks.
- TBRS series regulators allow gas into the tank to maintain constant pressure, preventing collapse during pump-out
- TBVS series back-pressure regulators vent excess pressure to vapor recovery systems, preventing accidental emissions
These regulators offer precise pressure control in tank blanketing applications. They feature fine-pitched threads on set-pressure springs for enhanced adjustability, a highly sensitive diaphragm-sensing mechanism for accurate pressure detection, and an external feedback loop that improves regulator performance. Additionally, they are built to withstand harsh environments, utilizing 316L stainless steel for components like feedback tubes, regulator bodies, and poppet housings, ensuring corrosion resistance and long-term durability.
