RegO Products, part of OPW Clean Energy Solutions and Dover, announced the launch of its new CBE504 Series Half-Inch Pressure Builder-Economizer Regulator, which enables cryogenic vessels to achieve and maintain proper pressures with minimal risk of product loss.
The new CBE504 unit is 40% lighter and produces pressure-build speeds that are up to two times faster than competitive models. Combining the pressure-building and economizer functions into one unit saves space and simplifies installation in tight plumbing situations.
Notable features and benefits of the CBE504 Series Pressure Builder-Economizer Regulator include:
- Maximum inlet pressure of 600 psig (41.4 barg) and a set pressure range of 25 to 550 psig (1.7 to 37.9 barg);
- Cryogenic temperature rating from -320ºF to 150ºF (-196ºC to 65ºC);
- Designed for use in various cryogenic industrial gases, including nitrogen, oxygen, argon, CO2 and LNG*;
- Economizer setpoint linked to pressure builder setpoint, which helps ensure correct adjustment;
- Lateral economizer port with 1.7 times larger flow area than competitive models supports faster response time and reduced product loss;
- Economizer seal design tied strictly to the PB Outlet function mitigates against pressure runaways, further reducing potential for product loss;
- Internal economizer-check function reduces potential for product loss by helping prevent reverse flow;
- Calibrated pressure adjustment on bonnet cap allows for faster, more accurate pressure-set adjustments;
- One-piece PTFE poppet seat provides better guidance for improved seating, which helps eliminate leak paths at cryogenic temperatures;
- Monel screens on pressure builder help prevent accumulation of debris in the regulator seat, resulting in longer seat and seal life;
- Copper gasket provides superior seal under cryogenic temperatures to help prevent leakage;
- Unit can be mounted vertically or horizontally;
- PED (SEP) certified and CRN registered (#0C21549.25); and
- 10-year RegO product warranty.
