During the past year, Equilibar engineers have noticed an uptick in inquiries from researchers looking for better ways to control back pressure in fuel injector test stands. One reason for the renewed interest is that scientists around the world are exploring ways to use hydrogen as a green fuel enhancement for combustion engines. Background Fuel Read More
The ability to handle extreme temperatures is one of the benefits of the dome-loaded multiple orifice design of Equilibar® valves and regulators. Each component of these devices–the body, O-ring, diaphragm, and bolts–can be made from virtually any material, which means they are infinitely customizable. As a result, the superior precision, instantaneous adjustment and frictionless operation Read More
An exciting case study featuring oil well injection in the Bakken Basin of North Dakota was published in the June 2020 issue of Flow Control Magazine. Co-authored by Diane Jacober of Equilibar and Christopher Duffield of Intermountain Electronics, the article explains how direct-sealing diaphragm valves offer practical advantages for difficult flow control applications, especially those Read More
Electrolysis is the chemical process of using electricity to divide a molecule into its component parts. It plays a key role in hydrogen and other renewable energy technologies, which has led to increased exploration and activity in the field. Many electrolysis applications require extremely precise fluid control that can respond to changes almost immediately. The Read More
