Maxitrol R600Z-1 Regulator
The Maxitrol R600Z-1 is a high-performance 1" NPT zero governor regulator engineered for precise control in specialized gas-burning systems. Featuring a unique balanced valve design, this unit maintains exceptionally stable outlet pressure regardless of inlet fluctuations, making it a critical component for air-gas mixing applications, nozzle mixers, and proportional pre-mixers. With a double-diaphragm construction and a rugged aluminum housing, it provides reliable industrial gas pressure regulation for both main burners and pilot lines in large heating systems.
The R600Z-1 is CSA certified for a maximum inlet pressure of 1/2 PSI and has been Maxitrol tested up to 1 PSI for high-demand environments. Its zero governor functionality allows for outlet pressures close to atmospheric, typically ranging from -1.0" to 1.5" W.C. This regulator is compatible with a broad range of fuels, including Natural Gas, LP gas, and manufactured gases, ensuring versatility across various commercial and industrial combustion setups.
Key Benefits:
- Precision Mixing: Ideal for systems requiring accurate fuel-air ratios, such as mixing tees and infrared heaters.
- Superior Stability: The balanced valve design eliminates the inlet pressure effect, ensuring consistent flow and performance.
- Multi-Position Mounting: Flexible installation options with its multi-poise mounting capability (upright position required if using a vent limiter).
- Durable Construction: Features high-quality synthetic rubber diaphragms for excellent low-temperature performance down to -40°F.
- High Capacity: Despite its compact footprint, it offers exceptional capacity characteristics for demanding boiler contractor projects.
Common Questions:
Is the vent protector included?
No, the 13A15 vent protector must be purchased separately. Use of a vent protector is recommended for outdoor installations to prevent debris or insects from obstructing the vent.
What is the maximum inlet pressure rating?
This regulator is CSA certified for a maximum inlet of 0.5 PSI, though it is tested by Maxitrol to handle up to 1.0 PSI for specific HVACR applications.
Can I use this for dead-end lock-up service?
The R600Z series is specifically designed for zero governor and flow control applications; it is not intended for use in dead-end lock-up service.
?? Installation Requirement: This product must be installed by a licensed gas fitter or qualified technician to ensure safety and system compliance.
