SB Relief Regulators are versatile - offering fast, positive response service for air, all types of gas fuels, and inert gas applications. They may be used as bypass valves in automatic safety systems, and as high capacity relief regulators downstream of reducing regulator stations and inert gas generators. Supplied with color-coded springs in cataloged pressure ranges. Inlet pressures to 25 psig operating; maximum surge to 50 psig without damage. Available in sizes 3/4 '' through 3'' NPT.
