Introduction
The Type T205B is a direct-operated, internally balanced
regulator. This balanced design allows for greater
fl uctuations in inlet pressure, as well as much greater
fl ow capacity. Higher fl ow has become increasingly
important as updated tank blanketing sizing guidelines*
often result in greater fl ow requirements.
* Such as API 6th Edition 2009 and ISO 28300 2008
Application
The Type T205B regulator has been specifi cally designed
for tank blanketing applications. In tank blanketing, a
gas such as nitrogen in brought into the tank in order to
inert the vapor space above the liquid. This application
is characterized by low pressure. The TypeT205B is able
to maintain very low pressure setpoints and respond to
very small changes in pressure.
Patent-Pending Balanced Trim Design

The TypeT205B features a patent-pending
balanced trim design. This unique design
allows the regulator to achieve much
higher fl ow capacities than traditional
designs. It is less susceptible to pressure
fl uctuations that can originate from the
blanketing gas supply - thus delivering
more accurate performance.
