BP-8LF Series Back Pressure Control Regulators

General Details

The BP-8LF Series back pressure regulator is designed to furnish high precision control of pressures in analytical instrumentation. With the combination of the large diaphragm sensing area of the BP-8 Series and the low flow of the BP-3 Series pressure control as low as 20 inches of water is easily obtainable.
