1. See Table 1 for main valve structural design ratings and Table 3 for pilot ratings.
2. The red, black, purple, red stripe and black with white stripe springs are only recommended for applications where the maximum inlet pressure can exceed 34.5 bar / 500 psig.
3. For differential pressures above 27.6 bar d / 400 psid diaphragm temperatures are limited to 66°C / 150°F.
4. These are recommendations that provide the best regulator performance for a typical application. Please contact your local Sales Office for further information if a deviation from the standard
recommendations is required.
