Series 152A Process Steam Pressure Regulators are designed to
offer highly sensitive response to reduced pressure changes and
maintain fullest possible volume without appreciable reduced
pressure drop. These regulators are ideal for use on applications
such as oil lines, testing fixtures, autoclaves, steam tables, steam
irons, single radiators, vulcanizers, sterilizers and process lines. The
series 152A features a sensitivity adjuster to eliminate any vibrating
condition that may arise from critical flow requirements.
Features
• Iron body construction
• Serviceable in line
• Standard sensitivity adjuster
Models
152A – Iron body for pressures up to 200psi (14 bars)
152AT – Tight seating for dead end and liquid service. Utilizes
