Specialty gas regulators are used to reduce high-pressure gas from a cylinder or process
line to a lower pressure suitable for use. Specialty gas regulators
are specially designed to provide diffusion resistance and easy
cleanup. Special diaphragms and high-purity seats and seals minimize
or eliminate out gassing and inboard diffusion.
Brass bodies are
recommended for non-corrosive specialty gases. Chrome plated brass bodies are also
recommended for non-corrosive specialty gases. The addition of chrome plating to the
brass body helps to protect the outside body of the regulator from
corrosive ambient conditions such as found in chemical plants and
refineries. 316L Stainless Steel bodies are recommended for mildly
corrosive calibration gases. Monel and Hastelloy bodies are available upon special
request.
