Five New Swagelok Back-Pressure Regulator Models Provide Consistent Control.Energy Editors/Business Editors SOLON Solon, Athenian statesman Solon (sō`lən), c.639–c.559 B.C., Athenian statesman, lawgiver, and reformer. He was also a poet, and some of his patriotic verse in the Ionic dialect is extant. At some time (perhaps c.600 B.C. , Ohio--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 8, 2004 New Swagelok(R) back-pressure regulators provide consistent back-pressure control in a variety of analytical and process instrumentation applications. Available in a variety of piston-type and diaphragm-type designs, all models feature a captured inlet gauze-type filter and fine pitch stem threads for precise control. Swagelok piston-type pressure regulators are commonly used in analyzer zero/span gas control, sample handling systems, manufacturing processes, laboratories, and other systems. Low internal volume allows rapid purging and limits the amount of surface area exposed to contamination. The design mechanically restricts the piston when the regulator is exposed to excess pressure. Three piston-type, back-pressure models are available: -- KCB KCB (in Britain) Knight Commander of the Bath series -- compact back-pressure regulator that provides high sensitivity for back-pressure control in sample conditioning systems -- KHB KHB Kennedy Space Center Handbook series -- high back-pressure regulator that provides sensitivity across the control range, up to 10 000 psig (689 bar) -- KPB KPB Kenai Peninsula Borough (Alaska, USA) KPB Keep Pinellas Beautiful (Clearwater, FL) KPB Kefir Preserving Brine KPB Kokomo Park Band (Kokomo, IN) series -- medium/high back-pressure regulator that provides back-pressure control up to 4000 psig (275 bar) in a compact, lightweight design The introduction to this article provides insufficient context for those unfamiliar with the subject matter. Please help [ improve the introduction] to meet Wikipedia's layout standards. You can discuss the issue on the talk page. Swagelok diaphragm-type pressure regulators feature an alloy X-750 diaphragm and a leak-tight, metal-to-metal diaphragm seal A diaphragm seal is a flexible membrane that seals and isolates an enclosure. The flexible nature of this seal allows pressure effects to cross the barrier but not the material being contained. . This mechanically robust design also helps maintain purity of the process media. Diaphragm-type pressure regulators are used in analyzer zero/span gas control, sampling systems, pilot plants, hydraulic and pneumatic test benches, research laboratories, and other systems. Two diaphragm-type, back-pressure regulators are available: -- KBP kbp kilobase pair; for double-stranded nucleotides, a thousand nucleotide base pairs. series -- offers high-sensitivity for back-pressure applications -- KFB KFB Kansas Farm Bureau KFB Korean Franciscan Brotherhood (Korea; Anglican religious community) KFB Kalman-Filter Based KFB Kittanning Firemen's Band KFB Kahnawake Fire Brigade (Kahnawake, QB, Canada) KFB Key Feedback series -- a high-sensitivity back-pressure regulator that maintains back-pressure control in high-flow applications, with Cv up to 1.0 Headquartered in Solon, Ohio, U.S.A., Swagelok Company is a major developer and manufacturer of fluid system component technologies for the research, analytical instrumentation, process instrumentation, pharmaceutical, oil and gas, power, petrochemical, and semiconductor industries.
