Tank-Mount Pressure-Regulating Valves for Air and Inert Gas

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. Valves have 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.

Single Stage


Female Outlet × Male Inlet Single-Stage Valves with T-Handle	Flared Outlet × Male Inlet Single-Stage Valves	UNF Male Outlet x Male Inlet Single-Stage Valves with T-Handle	UNF Male Outlet × Male Inlet Single-Stage Valves With Knob

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.

37° Flared Outlet Connection and 45° Flared Outlet Connection—Valves with flared tube outlet fittings form a tight seal on metal tubing.

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

Stainless Steel Diaphragm—Valves with a stainless steel diaphragm can withstand harsh environments.

Tank-Mount High-Pressure-Regulating Valves for Air and Inert Gas

Often used for pressure-vessel testing and other high-pressure applications, these valves can handle at least seven times the outlet pressure of standard tank-mount pressure-regulating valves. They 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 have a gauge to monitor outlet pressure and a gauge to monitor inlet pressure from the tank. They are single stage and reduce pressure in one step, which causes the outlet pressure to fluctuate slightly as you empty the tank.

High-Purity Tank-Mount Pressure-Regulating Valves for Inert Gas

Reduce contaminants in research sample systems, emission monitoring systems, chromatography, and other high-purity applications that use argon, helium, nitrogen, or carbon dioxide. These valves have a 316 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 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.

Vacuum Breakers for Chemicals

A plastic body withstands pH neutralizing, cleaning, and plating solutions containing sodium hydroxide, methyl ethyl ketone, and other harsh chemicals. Also known as vacuum-breaking valves, these valves have vents that open when pressure drops to relieve vacuum conditions and prevent backward suction from drawing liquid into upstream piping.

Vacuum Breakers

Also known as vacuum-breaking valves, these valves have vents that open when pressure drops to relieve vacuum conditions and prevent backward suction from drawing liquid into upstream piping.

Straight

Straights are often used with steam coils, heat exchangers, and space heaters.

303 Stainless Steel Body—303 stainless steel valves have the best corrosion resistance.

High-Pressure Vacuum Breakers

Rated for 12 times the pressure of standard vacuum-breaking valves, these can handle up to 1,500 psi. Also known as vacuum-breaking valves, they have vents that open when pressure drops to relieve vacuum conditions and prevent backward suction from drawing liquid into upstream piping. Body is 316 stainless steel for excellent corrosion resistance.

Flow Coefficient (Cv)—Flow coefficient (Cv) is the amount of water (in gallons per minute) at 60° F that will flow through a fully open valve with a difference of 1 psi between the inlet and the outlet.
