#pressure-relief #components #VMAnews
Gilmore introduces its new Surface Compact Regulator, designed to provide the highest reliability in pressure regulating for wellhead control panels and hydraulic power units. Tungsten carbide shear-seal technology allows thousands of reliable cycles between valve maintenance, making these regulators an excellent choice to regulate pressure when filling umbilical lines or flushing equipment.
This versatile design can be used in low- and high-pressure applications, and is capable of enduring high-flow conditions during start-up. According to the company, the new regulator offers safe, dependable and effective pressure control. Some of the features and benefits include:
- 15,000 psi inlet rating / 10,000 psi outlet rating
- Wide adjustability (3,000 psi to 10,000 psi regulated)
- Flow coefficient: Cv 0.08
- Ported vent outlet
- Accurate setpoint repeatability
- Material traceability standard on all wetted components
- Corrosion-resistant materials for long-term applications
