Fisher Y600A-213 | Pressure Reducing Regulator

Product Overview

The Fisher Y600A – 213 is a high – performance pressure reducing regulator, engineered to meet the stringent demands of industrial pressure control applications. As part of Fisher’s renowned product lineup, it is designed with precision and reliability in mind, ensuring seamless operation in various industrial settings. This regulator is especially well – suited for scenarios where accurate low – pressure regulation is crucial, making it an ideal choice for industries such as oil and gas, chemical processing, and food and beverage production.

The Y600A – 213 features a large diaphragm area, which is a key factor in its ability to provide precise control at low – pressure settings. This design allows for sensitive response to pressure changes, maintaining a stable downstream pressure even in the face of fluctuating upstream conditions. Additionally, depending on the specific model variant within the Y600A series, it may incorporate features like a pitot tube (in types Y600A and Y600AR), which offers greater capacity through a dynamic boost mechanism. The Y600AM type, on the other hand, utilizes external registration with a 1/2 NPT downstream control line connection and an O – ring stem seal for enhanced performance and durability.

Key Features and Benefits

Precise Low – Pressure Control

The large diaphragm area of the Fisher Y600A – 213 enables highly accurate control at low – pressure settings. This is essential in applications where even minor pressure variations can impact the quality of the end – product or the efficiency of the process. For example, in pharmaceutical manufacturing, maintaining a consistent low – pressure environment in the production of certain drugs is critical to ensure product integrity. The Y600A – 213’s precise control capabilities help minimize these variations, leading to more reliable and high – quality production.

Enhanced Capacity with Pitot Tube (in applicable models)

Models Y600A and Y600AR, which are part of the broader Y600A series and related to the Y600A – 213 in terms of design principles, come equipped with a pitot tube. This feature provides a dynamic boost, increasing the regulator’s capacity. In industrial processes that require a large volume of fluid to be regulated at low pressures, such as in some large – scale chemical reactors, the pitot tube – enabled models can handle the higher flow rates while still maintaining accurate pressure control.

Durable Construction

The regulator is built with corrosion – resistant materials, ensuring long – term reliability even in harsh industrial environments. In oil and gas refineries, where the equipment is exposed to corrosive gases and liquids, the Fisher Y600A – 213’s corrosion – resistant construction allows it to withstand these challenging conditions without significant degradation in performance. This durability reduces the need for frequent replacements, resulting in lower maintenance costs and less downtime.

Tamper – Resistant Adjustment

The Y600A – 213 is designed with tamper – resistant adjustment features. This is crucial in industrial settings where unauthorized changes to the pressure settings could lead to safety hazards or process inefficiencies. By preventing accidental or unauthorized adjustments, the regulator helps maintain the integrity of the pressure control system, ensuring consistent and safe operation.

Easy Inspection and Maintenance

Fisher has designed the Y600A – 213 with ease of inspection and maintenance in mind. The components are arranged in a way that allows technicians to quickly access and inspect critical parts. In the event of maintenance or repair, the design simplifies the process, reducing the time required to get the regulator back into service. This is especially important in industries where continuous operation is essential, such as power generation plants.

Application Scenarios

Oil and Gas Industry: Used in gas distribution systems to regulate the pressure of natural gas or other gases. It helps ensure a stable pressure supply to various processing units, protecting downstream equipment from over – pressure situations and maintaining the efficiency of the overall production process.

Chemical Processing: In chemical plants, the Fisher Y600A – 213 is used to control the pressure of reactants and products. Precise pressure control is often required in chemical reactions to ensure the desired reaction rates and product qualities. The regulator’s ability to handle different types of chemicals, thanks to its corrosion – resistant construction, makes it a suitable choice for this industry.

Food and Beverage Production: In the food and beverage industry, accurate pressure control is necessary for processes such as carbonation in beverage production, or in the operation of certain types of food processing equipment. The Y600A – 213’s precise low – pressure control capabilities help maintain the quality and safety of food and beverage products throughout the production process.

Related Models

Fisher Y600A – 214: An upgraded version with enhanced communication capabilities, perhaps featuring a digital interface that allows for remote monitoring and adjustment of the pressure settings. This would be useful in smart factories or industrial plants where centralized control and data collection are important.

Fisher Y600A – 212: A more basic model within the series, with a slightly lower maximum inlet pressure capacity, say 120 psig (8.3 bar). This could be a cost – effective option for applications where the higher pressure handling capabilities of the Y600A – 213 are not required, such as in some small – scale manufacturing processes or less – demanding laboratory setups.

Fisher Y600A – 213S: A special variant with a stainless – steel body, offering even greater corrosion resistance. This model would be ideal for use in highly corrosive environments, such as in the production of certain specialty chemicals or in marine – related industrial applications.

Fisher Y600A – 213H: A high – temperature version, capable of operating in a wider temperature range, perhaps up to 200°F (93°C). This would be suitable for industries where the regulator may be exposed to elevated temperatures, such as in some power generation or industrial heating applications.
