The BelGAS division of Marsh Bellofram Corp., which is a member of the Bellofram Group of Companies, has introduced the Type 52SS a family of NACE compliant stainless steel gas pressure regulators and filters.
These products are designed for service in many sour gas, high corrosion and other severe environments. They are available in port sizes from 1/4” up to an industry exclusive 1” NPT.
The specialty construction of the BelGAS Type 52SS features a 316 stainless steel housing and filter assemblies, with fluorocarbon elastomers used for the control diaphragm and supply valve. The Type 52SS operates over pressure ranges of up to 150 PSIG (10.3 BAR), with excellent stability, repeatability and low droop. In addition, Type P52SSFR and P52SSAR regulators, as well as Types P52SSF and P52SSAF, have built-in dripwells for the effective trapping of water, oil and other contaminants. Contaminants are easily flushed from the dripwell via a convenient manual or automatic drain valve. In addition, their easily removable 40-48 Micron Filter is constructed of sintered 316 stainless steel. Units also feature a tapped vent for ease of exhaust gas capture.
BelGAS Type P52SS gas pressure regulators can be mounted in a choice of three different configurations. Both the regulators and filter assemblies comply with NACE Standard MR0175 (Metals for Sulfide Stress Cracking and Stress Corrosion Cracking Resistance in Sour Oilfield Environments). Filter-only assemblies are also available upon request.
