Functional description

The intended use of the Pressure regulator U11AC is pressure relief of a gas from an inlet pressure to a fixed or adjustable outlet pressure.

Pressure reduction is performed by the pressure regulator. It is equipped with one pressure gauge to display the inlet pressure and the outlet pressure. The outlet pressure is set to the desired value by turning the of the handwheel on the pressure regulator and is not permitted to exceed a defined maximum value given on the label.

Especially in the case of acetylene, this increase in the outlet pressure is taken into account by the manufacturer in the limitation setting of the maximum possible pressure setting value, so that the outlet pressure cannot exceed the maximum permissible 1.5 bar for the low-pressure range in the event of no actual acetylene inlet pressure occurring.
