AR Series Pneumatic Air Pressure Regulators

Features & Key Specifications

Features & Key Specifications of Our AR Series:

Precise and Stable Pressure Control:
The high-resolution control mechanism and sensitive diaphragm provide excellent pressure regulation, ensuring your equipment operates consistently. The adjustment range is wide, typically from 0.05 to 0.9 MPa.

Locking Adjustment Knob:
The push-to-lock adjustment knob prevents accidental pressure changes from vibration or operator error, securing your setpoint for reliable operation.

Full Range of Port Sizes (M5 to 1"):
To accommodate everything from miniature pneumatics to large industrial applications, this series is available in a comprehensive range of port sizes, including M5, 1/8", 1/4", 3/8", 1/2", 3/4", and 1".

Integrated Gauge Port:
The regulator body includes a standard port for easy installation of a pressure gauge, allowing for clear visual monitoring of the output pressure.

Modular & Panel Mount Capable:
Designed for flexibility, the AR series can be easily connected to other air preparation units using our modular brackets. A panel mounting nut is also available for clean installation on a control console.

Global Compatibility:
Available with NPT, BSPP (G), and BSPT (P) threads to ensure easy integration into any pneumatic system worldwide.

Application Fields

The Core of Pressure Control for Any Industry:

Pneumatic Tooling: Setting the optimal operating pressure for air tools to maximize performance and lifespan.

Paint Spraying & Finishing: Delivering consistent, unfluctuating pressure for a perfect finish.

Test & Measurement Equipment: Providing stable, regulated air for sensitive instrumentation.

OEM Machine Building: A reliable, cost-effective regulator for integration into new machinery.

Technical & Selection Guide

Why Every Pneumatic System Needs a Regulator

A compressor typically supplies air at a high pressure (e.g., 1.0-1.2 MPa), which is too high for most pneumatic components. An air regulator is essential to:

Reduce Pressure: It lowers the pressure to the safe and efficient operating level of your device (e.g., 0.5-0.7 MPa).

Stabilize Pressure: It absorbs fluctuations from the main air line, providing a rock-steady output pressure.

Optimize Performance & Safety: Running components at the correct pressure prevents damage, reduces air consumption, and ensures consistent operation.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the difference between a relieving and non-relieving regulator?
A: Our standard AR series regulators are the "relieving" type. This means if the downstream pressure becomes too high (e.g., from an external force on a cylinder), the regulator will automatically vent the excess pressure to maintain the setpoint. This is the most common and safest type.

Q: How do I lock the adjustment knob?
A: Simply set your desired pressure by turning the knob, then push the knob down. It will click into a locked position. To adjust again, pull the knob up.

Q: Can I mount this regulator on a panel?
A: Yes. A panel mounting nut is available that allows you to install the regulator through a hole in a control panel for a clean, professional look.
