Fluid system operators running a process line from a gas cylinder source may occasionally observe outlet pressure increasing in a pressure-reducing regulator — for no apparent reason. As the cylinder empties, the inlet pressure to the regulator decreases. One would expect the outlet pressure to decrease concurrently, but instead, the outlet pressure rises. This is known as supply pressure effect (SPE). You can address it with the right type of regulator.
Your fluid systems can't fail—and they can't leak. That's why Swagelok Northern California offers mission critical solutions for the petrochem, semi, power, and oil and gas industries around the Bay Area and into NW Nevada. We manufacture and assemble reliable, customizable components that get the job done. Contact our team today to learn about custom solutions for your plant or refinery.
