FEATURES
High flow capacity - Up to 80 SCFM (2266 LPM)
Responds quickly to minute changes in downstream pressure
Dampening action of aspirator tube maintains downstream pressure
Balanced supply valve minimizes the effect of supply pressure changes
Bellofram’s Buna-N and polyester rolling diaphragms are designed to
provide millions of cycles
Honking & buzzing eliminated by action of integral baffle and aspirator tube
Stack up construction can be disassembled and serviced without removal
from air line
DESCRIPTION
The Type-70 Regulator is specifically designed for applications that require
substantial flow capacity and accurate pressure controls. Flows of 80 SCFM
(2250 LPM) can be attained. Downstream pressure can be set within 0.25 in.
(6.3mm) of water column and is accurately maintained under varying flow con-
ditions with the help of an aspirator tube which adjusts the air supply in accor-
dance with the flow velocity. A balanced supply valve, utilizing a rolling
diaphragm, makes the regulator virtually immune to changes in supply
pressure.
The Type 70 has a rugged precision die-cast aluminum hous-
ing, and is pressure-tested and chromate-treated for internal
corrosion resistance. The regulator housing is finished with
vinyl paint which resists scratching, weathering and
other physical abuse.
FEATURES
High flow Capacity - Up to 50 SCFM (1400 LPM)

Bellofram’s Buna-N and polyester rolling diaphragms are designed to give
millions of cycles
Stack up construction can be disassembled and serviced without removal
from air line
DESCRIPTION
The Type-70 Back-Pressure Regulator functions as a high flow, high precision
pneumatic relief valve with an adjustable setpoint. The Type-70BP can be used
in place of a standard relief valve to improve pressure control while maintain-
ing protection against over pressurization, as in supply pressure lines to instru-
ments and other control devices.
It is most often used in conjunction with a diaphragm-operated valve and bleed
orifice as a compressor controller. Excess compressor pressure is relieved
through the regulator to actuate the intake restricting valve. When the regulator
is shut off, downstream air escapes through the bleed orifice, allowing the
restricting valve to open.
