Sanitary Gas Regulators sizes 3/4" - 2" for biopharm, pharma, food &
beverage low pressure Clean Dry Gas/Air blanketing and inline
pressure regulation
The Mark 968 Sanitary Gas Regulator is the ideal valve
for low pressure gas regulation in pharmaceutical and
food & beverage applications. The self-contained low
pressure gas regulator is for use on tank blanketing and
other very low critical pressure air and gas applications.
The Mark 968 is normally open. Increases in the outlet
pressure are sensed through the aspirator causing the
large elastomer diaphragm to rise, which moves the
plug toward the seat. As outlet pressure decreases, the
diaphragm moves down and moves the plug away from
the seat to increase ow. The lever, which connects the
stem to the diaphragm, amplies diaphragm forces for
tighter shutoff (only available on sizes 3/4" and 1").
Gas Regulators Mark 968 Sanitary Gas Regulator
The large diaphragm and lever actuation allows the
Mark 968 to act with higher sensitivity compared to
smaller diaphragm pressure regulators. High sensitivity
is important, as the Mark 968 often works with very low
pressure (down to 1" w.c. or 2,5 mbar). This special
actuation improves the accuracy and shutoff of the valve
- two important benets in this style of regulator.
Together, the SST construction, FDA-approved seals
and the tri-clamp connections make this valve well
suited for sterile gas applications and environments.
Features
•Inlet pressures up to 150 psi (10 bar)
•Robust design — emergency outlet pressure may
reach 100% of inlet pressure without damaging
valve
•360° body orientation — valve can be installed in
any position, and can be easily repositioned while
in-line
To select the orifice size for your valve you need to know P1 (inlet pressure). P2 (outlet pressure set point), and maximum flow in SCFH.
1. Select the row that best represents your outlet Set Pressure (P2)
2. Select the sub-row that is representative of your Inlet Pressure (P1)
3. Find the Flow rate in that sub-row that encompasses your maximum flow. Look at the orifice column heading to determine your specific orifice size.

Mark 968 Series
Sanitary Gas Regulator (1-1/2" – 2")
The 1-1/2" and 2" valves are for use on large tank
blanketing applications or other low pressure gas
regulation. In a tank blanketing application, the
Mark 968 is used to control the ow of the blanketing gas into the tank to maintain the proper positive
pressure. Once the blanket has been established,
a small ow of nitrogen is continually admitted to
the tank to keep the blanket fresh. These valves are
often used in conjunction with the Mark 958 back
pressure gas regulator, used to vent gas from the
tank to prevent blanketing pressure from rising to a
level that could damage the tank.
The Mark 968 comes standard with an extra large
diaphragm to give set point control as low as 2.0"
W.C. (4,98 mbar). In addition, the "S" pattern body
design allows for high ow capacity and bubble
tight shutoff.

To find the maximum flow rate that this valve can control to, you need to know P1 (inlet pressure), P2 (outlet pressure set point), and
maximum flow in SCFH.
1. Select the Range row that encompasses your outlet Set Pressure (P2). 3. Select the column that best represents your Inlet Pressure (P1).
2. Select the sub-row that is closest to your actual outlet Set Pressure (P2) 4. The maximum flow rate that the valve can regulate is the number represented at the
intersection of the sub row and the Inlet Pressure column.
