Barksdale’s pressure regulators are sensitive pressure-control devices

used to maintain a pre-determined pressure in a hydraulic circuit. The

regulated output pressure can be controlled either by the force of a

spring, or a motor (hydraulic or pneumatic). Design features ensure

excellent accuracy, repeatability and high flow coefficients.

With Barksdale, Pressure is Under Control
Barksdale’s pressure regulators are built on
Shear-Seal® Technology, where the media passes
through an internal gallery rather than across a
sealing surface. This rugged, corrosion-resistant
design and construction allows for long-term use in
a wide range of applications such as
chemical/petrochemical plants, refineries, gas pro-
cessing, steel mills and for blow out preventer
accumulator systems.

Self Adjusting
Regulated output pressure is adjusted by varying
the spring force with either an air or hydraulic
motor or a manual operator. If the output or regu-
lated pressure exceeds the desired setting, the
excess pressure is automatically relieved through
a vent port. If the output pressure drops below the Manual Set
preset value, fluid from the inlet port automatically The manually set regulator is spring loaded to control
