The Mark 95 is available with a hard or soft seat
and a variety of diaphragm and o-ring materials,
making the valve well-suited for virtually any sterile
back pressure application.
The Mark95 operates by sensing the inlet pressure, or back pressure, beneath the diaphragm, as
ow enters from inlet port on the side. As the back
pressure exceeds the setpoint, the diaphragm force
compresses the range spring permitting the stem
to move from the seat toward the open position. As
the ow increases, the back pressure is relieved
and the spring and diaphragm relax, allowing the
stem to return to the normally closed position. If a
different set point is desired, a simple turn of the
adjusting screw will increase or decrease the setting to any set point within the range covered by the
regulator's spring.

Mark 95FT Series
CRN Registration Number Available
Sanitary "Flow Through" Back Pressure Regulators
Starting with the features and benets associated with
the superior design of the Mark 95, Steriow Valve has
added a ow-through option that creates more application potential. The MK95FT can eliminate a portion of
the by-pass line components by allowing the back pressure regulating valve to be installed in the primary line
– not in the separated by-pass line.
The Mark 95FT is often found in liquid services such
as WFI loops, CIP lines and filling lines. The valve is
normally closed, allowing flow to pass straight through
to downstream users. When demand downstream is
reduced and pressure builds and reaches the setpoint,
the Mark 95FT will open to relieve and maintain constant pressure. This design allows for elimination of
pipe "T's" and elbows, reduction of weld joints, simplified by-pass piping and easier, quicker installation.
Due to the unobstructed flow path through the valve,
very little to no pressure loss through the valve can
be expected. This is a key reason the MK95FT can be
installed directly into the primary process piping.
