Pressure Regulator Comparison What should your regulator do… REGULATE OR STRANGULATE?
How do you define a good regulator? By how little the actual downstream pressure deviates from the set point.
How the Test was done… • Regulators purchased from Authorized Distributors • Set at 30 psi • Using city water averaging 95 PSI • Downstream ball valve slowly opened to allow 6 gpm flow
Test #1 The Discount Regulator
Test #2 An Internationally known brand
Test #3 Plast-O-Matic spring loaded regulator
Test #4 Plast-O-Matic air loaded regulator & patented Stabilizer
Plast-O-Matic Regulators • Better flow • Less Drop-off from set pressure
