Emerson's Fisher® Sanitary Pressure Regulators Now Available in Expanded Sizes, Trim Options and Spring Ranges


Fisher® SR5 & SR8 series of products are now available in 2 and 3 inch port sizes.

MCKINNEY, TEXAS (March 29, 2006) - Emerson Process Management's Fisher® Type SR5 sanitary pressure regulators and Type SR8 sanitary back pressure regulators have expanded to include 2-inch and 3-inch models. These larger models, suitable for CIP/SIP applications, will complete Emerson's unmatched size portfolio of sanitary products (ranging from 1/2-inch up to 3-inch port sizes).

In addition to the size expansion, a new PEEK soft seat material has been added for all sizes. The new PEEK material provides ANSI Class VI shutoff in higher temperature applications (up to 400ºF). Emerson's standard PEEK material is FDA approved, and USP Class VI grades are available when required. In conjunction with the larger sizes and new soft seat material, a 75-125 psig spring size has been added for 1/2-inch to 1-1/2-inch SR8's, raising the max set point for these products from 100 to 125 psig.

Emerson's Fisher stainless steel sanitary regulators maintain precise pressure control, and meet strict sanitary requirements necessary to operate in critical sanitary processes in pharmaceutical, biotechnology, food and beverage, consumer products, chemical and other industries.

The Type SR5 and Type SR8 are designed for optimal performance in water-for-injection (WFI) and continuous clean steam applications; which include clean-in-place (CIP) and sanitize-in-place (SIP) systems.
