Description
FT 518 is a lever-operated device for high and medium pressure with multiple replaceable orifices.
FT 518 is an unbalanced pressure regulator.
This regulator is suitable for use with previously filtered, non-corrosive gases. It is a truly top entry design which allows an easy maintenance of parts directly in the field without removing the body from the pipework.
When the built-in token relief valve is active, it prevents undesirable slam shut trip due to minor internal leakages or ambient temperature variation.
The modular design of FT 518 pressure regulators allows to retrofit either slam shut valve or integral full monitor.
