Uses Of Fairchild Pressure Regulators

By Georgia Diaz


The purpose of Fairchild pressure regulators is to control the flow of liquids and gases if they attain a high level. They are mostly used in residential houses for safety reasons; they help regulate soaring gas and water levels to functional levels. When used in equipment and home appliances it performs according to the specifications of that appliance. However it should not be confused with a pump because when thrust increases in the equipment the same happens in the valve.

The valves operate in such a way that they reduce the initial thrust of the liquids and gasses to a more usable level. Forward thrust controls is another name used to refer to the regulator. Valves are commonly installed in propane gas cylinders, load cookers, air compressors, gas powered cars, recreational vehicles and in welding.

Pressure cookers are used worldwide in many homes and food related companies and hotels. Some foods might require high temperatures while others require little, valve are installed in the cookers to aid in the raising and lowering of the heat. Hotels on the other hand use these cookers to cook massive amounts of food at a go, using this cooking method is much faster compared to other methods. They are used in many fast food chains to serve the high number of clients.

Welders and metal cutters use oxygen-fueled gases on a daily basis, the welding process requires specific amounts of heat and the valves play the role of making sure that the exact requirements are met. The regulator also protects the cylinders from exploding as a result of too much thrust. Having valves installed in cylinders makes the welders to be in control of the amount of gas used thereby minimizing cost as a result of properly utilized gas.

Air compressors are also fitted with the regulator, the load used to clean equipment needs to be moderated in order to serve its intended purpose. It is important that the thrust is standardized to protect the user too. This way the user can determine when to lower or increase the load depending on the tools they are cleaning.

Propane gas is known to fluctuate in different environmental conditions. The fluctuation must be handled if the gas is to be used in the correct manner, this is where valves come in. The different sizes of valves installed in various sizes of the cylinders all serve the same purpose; the valves must be able to convert high inlet thrust to low outlet load.

Recreational vehicles like RVs have plumbing systems installed in them. Unlike houses with piped water, RVs travel from place to place and this may cause the water thrust to change. Water thrust is greater where the distance it travels is longer; therefore the valves control the thrust and prevent it from damaging the vehicle.

In the end Fairchild pressure regulators are crucial for the home owner safety. Where valves are properly fitted they will help provide a constant supply of water to residents while at the same time ease the thrust of water. Sometimes a new regulator may be easy to install, but some involve the replacement of major water lines and may need professionals to handle the process. With professionals nearby, you are assured that things will not get out of hand.
