PacSeal Hydraulics’ KR pressure regulators are designed with ShearFlo® metal-to-metal sealing technology to ensure high cycle life and negligible internal leakage with superior contaminant resistance, making these valves perfectly suited for critical service applications in harsh and hazardous environments.
KR regulators serve as pressure reducing and regulating valves to maintain downstream hydraulic system pressure at a desired value (set pressure) that is below that of the supply pressure. All pressure regulators are factory acceptance tested to guarantee conformance of the rated regulated outlet pressure. PacSeal’s ShearFlo® technology further provides high reliability and long service life.
The outlet pressure is controlled by modulating the compression of springs that act on a pressurized piston either manually or with a failsafe motor. This in turn balances the hydraulic load inside the regulator body for an accurate and consistent set pressure.
Available sizes range from 1/8” to 2” (NPT, SAE ORB, Code 61 or Code 62).
If you find yourself wondering how to properly pair a KR to a manifold of SV directional control valves, then please see our blog that provides guidelines to size these products together for your desired flow rate and pipe size.
