GO HBP HEATED BACK PRESSURE REGULATOR

The HBP Series heated back pressure regulatoris designed to supply heat to samples entering instrumentation systems. Now available with Modbus and Canbus Connections as standard, it can be used to preheat liquids, to prevent condensation of gases or to vaporise liquids prior to gas analysis.

The modular design of the HBP consists of heat exchanger and pressure control sections. The pressure control section is patterned after the time-proven design of the BP3 pressure reducing regulator and provides the same excellent outlet pressure stability. The heat exchanger section is made up of a body and heat exchange element. The heat exchange element uses GO Regulator’s unique spiral-wrapped screen as the heat exchanger surface. This screen has up to 100 square inches of heat transfer area and precise design forces all sample flow to pass through the element.

The electrically heated version of the HBP Series are both CSA and ATEX approved. The electrical components of this unit are securely housed in a Class A, B, C, D condulet assuring that there is always an adequate flame path between the environment and the controller. Safety considerations can be further enhanced by using the optional TCO (Thermal Cut Out) heater cartridge. This feature enables the unit to boast a T3 rating with up to 250 watts of power (CSA rated T2D watt heater).
