Tantalum Coated Regulators offer corrosion resistance.

Tantalum Coated Regulators offer corrosion resistance.

With base parts typically made of stainless steel, Tantalum-coated Back Pressure Regulators withstand applications involving extreme chemistries. Regulators do not have any reciprocating shafts, valve members, or pistons because design uses flexible diaphragm membrane to both sense controlled pressure and to directly form valve seal against multiple parallel orifices. Diaphragm may be constructed...
