A1: A Barksdale pressure regulator is a precision device designed to maintain a pre-set pressure in a hydraulic circuit, ensuring stable system performance. It uses Shear-Seal® technology, which provides a leak-free metal-to-metal seal that improves with use and delivers: • Excellent accuracy and repeatability • High flow capacity • Long service life with virtually zero leakage • Options for remote set point adjustment with pneumatic/hydraulic motors Explore our regulator product offerings below:

A2: Self-venting refers to an internal pathway that automatically opens when pressure exceeds the set point, allowing excess pressure to escape safely. This feature: Protects equipment from overpressure Simplifies system design by eliminating external relief valves Improves safety in critical applications

A3: A fail-safe motor is a device for remote actuation that will maintain a safe/steady state in the event of failure of the power source (electrical/hydraulic/pneumatic). Barksdale offers pneumatic and hydraulic powered fail-safe motor options for remote operation and control of the setpoint of our regulators. These motors allow for personnel to adjust settings without entering hazardous areas, decreasing risk and response time for equipment in hard-to-reach areas. In the event of loss of power to the pneumatic or hydraulic line, Barksdale’s regulators maintain their set pressure ensuring critical safety systems are protected from overpressure.
