Frequently Asked Questions

Do I really need a pressure regulator?

DripWorks Frequently Asked Questions
If you're using T-Tape, soaker dripline or Aquapore you will need a regulator. Read the individual product descriptions for pressure recommendations. If you're using pressure compensating emitters, Shrubblers® or misters and have normal pressure you may not need a regulator. If you are using sprayers, you may want to use a pressure regulator to bring the water pressure into the rated range of the sprayer, since they will generally put out more water at higher pressures.

How do I maintain the pressure regulator?

Manttra Inc-the widest range of pressure cookers
About once a month, soak the Weight in detergent solution for some time, then clean it with a piece of cloth to remove all the dirt and food particles. Pour hot water to remove traces of detergent and use it again. See similar questions...

Why do I need a filter and pressure regulator?

Frequent Questions - Water Smart Landscapes
The emitters on your drip irrigation system have very small openings for the water to pass through. The filter prevents sediment from clogging your emitters, ensuring your plants will get the correct amount of water. A pressure regulator keeps the irrigation system at the manufacturer's recommended pressure (usually between 20 and 40 pounds per square inch). Not installing a pressure regulator may cause fittings and lines to fail, creating wasteful breaks and leaks in your system. See similar questions...

What is an fuel pressure regulator?

Express Fuel Pumps
fuel pressure regulator (FPR) controls the amount of fuel that goes into the intake manifold via the vacuum line after it passes through the injectors. See similar questions...

Why is a Thermal Mass Flow meter better than a Pressure Based Flow Transducer?

Flow meter, mass flow controller, mass flow meter, flowmeter...
Great question! We hear this all the time and it is why the Sierra meter is such a popular a choice by scientists and technicians “in the know”. Sometimes the pressure based flow transducers are called Volumetric or Mass Flow Meters. A pressure based meter is essentially a "Volumetric" device with the addition of the corrections required to compensate for the flowing gas, pressure, temperature and other second and third order effects. See similar questions...

How do I remove the flow regulator?

Waterpik - Frequently Asked Questions
Our shower heads have been designed in compliance with the Energy Bill passed by the federal government in October of 1992. This policy, which became effective January 1, 1994, set shower head flow rates at 2.5 gallons per minute. Therefore, our current shower models are designed with a flow regulator device, which allows for optimum performance at the maximum flow rate of 2.5 gallons of water per minute. For low-pressure areas, you may remove the flow regulator device on most models. See similar questions...

What is the difference between pressure class and pressure rating?

The three most common PVC pressure pipe products manufactured by Uni-Bell member companies are ASTM D2241, AWWA C900 and AWWA C905. The following information will briefly explain the differences between the “Pressure Class” and “Pressure Rating” design philosophies employed in these three standards. AWWA C900 has a “Pressure Class” design approach based on a 2.5 safety factor. Pressure Class is formed using a 2.5 safety factor versus the 2. See similar questions...

What is the difference between a high pressure and a low pressure system?

Low Pressure Portable Air Casters, Air Bearing Movers ? Air ...
Low pressure is 1 – 10 psi and does not need an external air supply source. Airsleds use a self-regulating blower that automatically adjusts to increases in weight. The system is contained and portable. High pressure is over 10 psi, needs an external air supply source and an air regulator. See similar questions...

What is the difference between low pressure and high pressure equipment?

Carefree Tan Troon
Low pressure units emit both UVA & UVB at a lower energy level. Low pressure units are the traditional beds you normally think of when you think of tanning beds. To build your base tan in low pressure units, you'll usually start off with about ? of the recommended maximum tanning time and increase by a minute or two with subsequent visits*. High pressure units give you immediate results. By filtering out the UVB rays (burning rays), you can tan quickly without burning. See similar questions...

Where is the warm-up regulator/control pressure regulator located?

ORG FAQ
The control pressure regulator, or warm-up regulator, is located at the back of the intake manifold. It's difficult to see it without removing the coil. It's about 2x2x3 inches and has two fuel lines and an electrical connector going to it. It's difficult to remove, due to the location. It's held on with two allen bolts, 5mm size. OK let's start from the top. First, there are four banjo bolts that are associated with the oil filter mounting block. See similar questions...

What is a Low Pressure Regulator?

FAQ
Typically, the term "Low-Pressure Regulator" refers to the regulator which reduces the output pressure of the gas source for use in pneumatically or electro-pneumatically operated guns. Gas from the low-pressure regulator is usually less than 200 psi and drives the pneumatics which cock the gun. The low-pressure regulator should not be confused with a regular "regulator" which reduces the pressure supplied to the valve system used to propel the ball. See similar questions...

What is the difference between low pressure units & high pressure units?

Tanning Frequently Asked Questions & Benefits, FAQ
Low pressure units emit both UVA & UVB at a low energy level. Low pressure units will give more of a red tone tan, and you'll need to maintain more often. High pressure units generate UVC, UVB, & UVA, but by means of a sophisticated filtering system, only UVA is emitted during a tanning session. It will take fewer sessions with a high pressure unit it to build a golden tan and to keep it. See similar questions...

Why choose a Pressure Control valve instead of a Pressure Regulator?

Pneumadyne - Help
Pressure Control valves are ideal for applications requiring a reduced pressure to a cylinder whereas Pressure Regulators are used to maintain a downstream settable pressure. See similar questions...

What can happen if downstream pressure exceeds the pressure setting of the regulator?

Frequently Asked Questions - Fisher Regulators
Downstream pressures significantly higher than the regulator's pressure setting may damage soft seats and other internal parts. See similar questions...

Will a monitor set give more flow capacity than a single regulator?

Frequently Asked Questions - Fisher Regulators
Do not undersize the monitor set. It is important to realize that the monitor regulator, even though it is wide-open, will require pressure drop for flow. Using two identical regulators in a monitor set will yield approximately 70 percent of the capacity of a single regulator. See similar questions...

When selecting a regulator, should I consider the temperature of the fluid flow?

Frequently Asked Questions - Fisher Regulators
Most regulators shown in this handbook are generally suitable for temperatures to 180?F (82?C). With high temperature fluoroelastomers (if available), the regulators can be used for temperatures to 300?F (149?C). Check the temperature capabilities to determine materials and temperature ranges available. Use stainless steel diaphragms and seats for higher temperature applications, such as steam service. See similar questions...

What is the difference between and voltage converter and a voltage regulator?

DC Converter,DC to DC Converter,AC DC Converters,Current to ...
A voltage regulator functions as a voltage converter as well as a voltage stabilizer. A voltage stabilizer will stabilize the electricity to a fixed current. VC model transformers come with a European-to-American plug adapter. You can find additional types of plug adapters on our site. See similar questions...
