FAQ's of REGO Cryogenic 1/2" Pressure Builder PB Series:
Q: How does the REGO PB Series Pressure Builder help maintain tank pressure in cryogenic systems?
A: The REGO PB Series regulates and sustains optimal tank pressure by introducing vaporized gas from the storage tank into the vapor space. Its spring-loaded mechanism enables quick activation as soon as pressure dips below the set value, ensuring stable and continuous operation.
Q: What types of cryogenic gases can the 1/2" PB Series valve handle?
A: This pressure builder valve is suitable for a range of cryogenic media, including liquid oxygen (LOX), liquid nitrogen (LN2), liquid argon (LAR), liquid carbon dioxide (LCO2), and liquefied natural gas (LNG).
Q: When should the PB Series valve be installed in a cryogenic storage system?
A: The PB Series is typically installed during system commissioning or whenever upgrading tank pressure stabilization is required. It is vital when storage tanks cannot maintain desired pressure levels on their own or when consistent service is critical.
Q: Where is the best location to install the 1/2" PB Series valve in a system?
A: The pressure builder valve should be installed at the designated pressure build line on the cryogenic storage tank, ideally positioned to provide optimal gas flow from the liquid phase for reliable pressure maintenance.
Q: What is the procedure for maintaining the REGO PB Series Pressure Builder?
A: Maintenance involves periodic inspection for leaks or wear, cleaning the valve internals, and replacing seals if necessary. Thanks to its threaded, spring-loaded design, maintenance can be conducted swiftly without specialized equipment.
Q: What are the primary benefits of using a manual, spring-loaded angle valve like the PB Series?
A: Benefits include dependable operation without electricity, a metal-to-metal seal for reduced leakage, easy adjustment, fast response to pressure changes, and suitability for harsh cryogenic environments due to robust construction.
