Now operators of power plants and other high temperature applications have a solution for remotely controlling pneumatic conveying systems. Norgren, Inc., a global supplier of motion control solutions, introduces the high temperature, air-piloted R-17 regulator. The new design utilizes high–temperature elastomers and machined aluminum components throughout the regulator, and the exterior is coated with a high temperature epoxy resin. Now users benefit from the proven performance of the popular R-17 regulator for high temperature conveying operations like ash removal. The regulator is rated for applications up to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and input pressures to 300 psig (20 bar). The pressure output of the new R-17 can be adjusted by a pilot regulator, so multiple regulators can be controlled safely and precisely from one remote location.
