FAQs

How do I select the right pressure regulator for my application?
Selection depends on several key factors including required pressure range, flow rate, and system requirements. We'll help evaluate your specific needs, considering factors like inlet pressure variations, required regulation accuracy, and environmental conditions. Our team can provide SMC documentation and specifications to ensure proper sizing and selection for your application.

How long will a pressure regulator last?
While SMC pressure regulators are designed for reliable long-term operation, regular maintenance helps ensure optimal performance. Monthly visual inspections should check for proper pressure readings, unusual sounds, or signs of wear. Quarterly checks should verify proper gauge function and adjustment response. Annual service typically includes seal inspection and cleaning of internal components by qualified personnel.
