Controlling Low Pressure with Precision Pressure Regulators

Equilibar specializes in low pressure control and ultra low pressure systems. We offer several unique products and technologies for working in the range below 1 psig / 68.9 millibar(g).

Low Pressure Regulator for High and Medium Flow Rates

Highest available precision in this flow range
Equilibar’s Series 41 regulators are available with ranges as low as 0 to 0.7 psig / 48 millibar(g) and as high as 0 – 5 psig / 344 millibar(g). 1/2″ and 3/4″ size allows for larger flow rates up to 24 SCFM. Intended for air and inert gases.

Low Pressure Regulator - Model 41 - Medium and High Flow Rates

Ultra Low Pressure Regulator for Low Flow Rates

Lowest range available!
Equilibar’s unique LPR2 pressure reducing regulator controls in range of 0.25 to 7 inH20 (0.02 – 0.25 psig / 1.4 – 17 millibar(g)). For low flow or no flow air or inert gas applications only. Higher pressure ranges also available.

Designed for very low flow and no flow processes, the LPR2 is ideal for testing and set-point applications.

Equilibar Ultra Low Pressure Regulator

 

Low Pressure Electronic Regulators

Equilibar is proud to offer the lowest pressure range available in electronic pressure regulators. Our QPV Series offers full scale pressure ranges as low as 0.3 psig / 20 millibar(g) (10 inH20), with calibrated ranges as low as 0 – 4 in H20 / 100 mm H20.

The QPV incorporates new analog valve technology to delivery ultra-high resolution with virtually no hysteresis or deadband.
