About Pressure-Relief Valves

About Gas Regulators

Male Inlet × Female Outlet With One Flowmeter

Female Inlet × Male Outlet With One Flowmeter

For Use With: See Table

Flowmeters let you see the gas flow rate from a distance. These valves automatically reduce a high inlet pressure from compressed gas tanks to a lower, stable outlet pressure. All have Compressed Gas Association (CGA) numbered inlet fittings for secure connections to compressed gas tanks. Choose a valve with the same CGA number as your tank and other system components. They have a gauge for monitoring inlet pressure from the tank.

Single-stage valves reduce pressure in one step, which causes the outlet pressure to fluctuate slightly as you empty the tank. They’re best for applications where a constant outlet pressure isn’t critical.

Valves with one flowmeter are for one piece of equipment on a tank. The flowmeter has a single scale.

Adapters (sold separately) change 5/8"-18 outlets to 9/16"-18 male connections, and vice versa.

Tank-Mount Pressure-Regulating Valves for Fuel Gases

For Use With: See Table
Temperature Range: -20° to 120° F

Attach these valves to acetylene, hydrogen, methane, propane, or propylene tanks to reduce a high inlet pressure to a lower, stable outlet pressure. They have Compressed Gas Association (CGA) numbered inlet fittings for secure connections to compressed gas tanks. Choose a valve with the same CGA number as your tank and other system components. Valves come with a gauge to monitor outlet pressure and a gauge to monitor inlet pressure from the tank.

Choose a valve with a maximum outlet pressure that’s approximately twice your application’s normal operating pressure. Your operating pressure should never exceed 75% of the valve’s maximum outlet pressure.

Two-stage valves progressively reduce pressure over two steps for more consistent outlet pressure at all times. They’re often used in applications that require a constant outlet pressure regardless of the tank level.

Valves with a brass body have a longer service life than valves with a brass and steel body.

High-Purity Tank-Mount Pressure-Regulating Valves for Fuel Gases

Single Stage

Two Stage

For Use With: Hydrogen, Methane
Temperature Range: -20° to 120° F

Designed to reduce contaminants in high-purity applications using hydrogen and methane gas, these valves have a stainless steel and brass body with a smooth finish to reduce dust collection and internal components designed to protect the seal and diaphragm from contamination. They’re often used in research sample systems, emission monitoring systems, and chromatography. Valves automatically reduce a high inlet pressure from compressed gas tanks to a lower, stable outlet pressure. All have Compressed Gas Association (CGA) numbered inlet fittings for secure connections to compressed gas tanks. Choose a valve with the same CGA number as your tank and other system components. Outlet fittings are Swagelok® for a leak-free seal around hard metal tubing in high-pressure lines. Also known as instrumentation fittings, Swagelok® fittings are compatible with Parker A-Lok, Gyrolok, Bilok, and Tylok fittings. Valves come with a gauge to monitor outlet pressure and a gauge to monitor inlet pressure from the tank.

Pressure-Regulating Valves for Fuel Gases

With T-Handle

For Use With: See Table
Temperature Range: See Table

Install these valves directly in gas distribution pipelines for acetylene, hydrogen, or propane. They automatically reduce a high inlet pressure to a lower, stable outlet pressure. Valves have two outlets to fit various pipe configurations and come with a plug to close the unused outlet. The gauge monitors outlet pressure. All valves are single stage and reduce pressure in one step, which causes the outlet pressure to fluctuate.

ASME-Code Fast-Acting Pressure-Relief Valves for Cryogenic Fluids

For Use With: Argon, Carbon Dioxide, Helium, Hydrogen, Methane, Nitrogen, Oxygen
Specifications Met: ASME BPVC.VIII
Temperature Range: -320° to 150° F

These valves meet ASME Code Section VIII for use with cryogenic pressure vessels. Rated for use with argon, carbon dioxide, helium, hydrogen, methane, nitrogen, and oxygen, they are cleaned and bagged for oxygen service and other high-purity applications. All spring fully open at the set pressure and remain open until the system pressure is restored below the set pressure. Attach a drain line to the threaded relief port for remote discharge.
