A pressure-reducing valve, also called a pressure-reducing regulator, is typically used in the oil & gas, water, and steam industries to reduce the excess unregulated pressure in a system. There are several types of gas regulators that are classified into two…
Water meters are essential for monitoring water consumption. There are four main categories of water meters: mechanical, ultrasonic, vortex and magnetic. Mechanical and ultrasonic water meters are the most popular choices for measuring drinking water consumption. Wholesale distributors across Canada…
Historically, people used appliance regulators for line pressure regulation. There is a new and revised standard that dictates that appliance regulators can no longer be used as line pressure regulators. The Maxitrol 325 Series regulators are ANSI-certified as line regulators…
Metering devices are crucial for controlling gas flow in residential, industrial, and commercial settings. With the many gas meter models currently on the market, choosing a meter that suits your application can be exhausting and confusing. Nonetheless, there are common…
There are many different types of equipment and appliances that require pressure regulators to keep pressure levels controlled at all times. Natural gas regulators are vital pieces of equipment that ensure proper gas flow and performance of the appliance or…
Operating a natural gas appliance requires carefully balanced gas pressure. If natural gas comes into the appliance too fast at too much pressure, the appliance might explode. If the pressure is too low, the appliance won’t work. Gas pressure-reducing regulator…
Since 1859, Canada has increasingly shifted its dependency on oil to natural gas as an affordable, reliable energy source. Today natural gas is easily accessible, providing advantages across a diverse collection of commercial, industrial and residential applications. Here we look…
Relief valves and back pressure regulators are two types of pressure regulators used to control pressure levels in gas applications. However, although they do a similar job, back pressure regulators and relief valves are very different. In this article, we…
Water conservation efforts are happening around the world to maximize the efficient use of valuable resources to protect the environment and public health. Water submetering can benefit many types of buildings, hospitals, schools, shopping malls, and multi-residential properties. In Canada,…
Gas metering devices are critical for controlling or measuring the flow of gases in pipes in a wide range of applications across the residential (utilities), commercial, and industrial sectors. Depending on the application type and required level of accuracy, you…
