Sensus 046-IRV-3/4 Regulator

The Sensus 046-IRV-3/4 Regulator is a heavy-duty field regulator designed for high-pressure gas pressure regulation in demanding industrial and commercial environments. This model features a 3/4" NPT connection and is equipped with a 1/8" orifice, optimized for precise pounds-to-pounds pressure reduction. Built with a rugged aluminum diaphragm case and a ductile iron body, it provides exceptional durability for natural gas, air, nitrogen, and dry CO2 applications. The 60# spring provides specific outlet pressure stability, making it a reliable choice for farm taps, gas blanketing systems, and high-pressure industrial gas setups. The integrated Internal Relief Valve (IRV) enhances system safety by protecting downstream equipment from over-pressurization. Its union connection simplifies field installation and maintenance, allowing for 360-degree diaphragm case rotation to suit various piping configurations. This industrial-grade high-pressure service regulator is engineered for both indoor and outdoor service, ensuring consistent performance in temperatures ranging from -20°F to 150°F.

• Internal Relief Valve (IRV): Provides essential over-pressure protection for downstream components without requiring additional external relief piping.
• Versatile Installation: The 360-degree rotating diaphragm case and independent mounting positions allow for easy integration into existing gas lines.
• Industrial Construction: Features a corrosion-resistant aluminum case and a high-strength ductile iron body for long-term reliability in field conditions.
• Wide Medium Compatibility: Effectively manages natural gas, propane vapor, nitrogen, and other non-corrosive inert gases.
• Maintenance Friendly: The simple design and union connection allow for rapid inspection and part replacement without removing the body from the line.

What is the maximum inlet pressure for this Sensus 046 model?
With the 1/8" orifice configuration, the 046-2 series typically handles inlet pressures up to 1000 psig, though specific limits depend on the valve material and operating temperature.

Can this regulator be used for oxygen service?
No, this regulator is designed for natural gas, air, and inert gases. It is not rated or cleaned for oxygen service.

Is this regulator suitable for underground installation?
The Sensus 046 family is strictly for indoor or outdoor above-ground service and is not recommended for buried or underground applications.
