Capacity Information
Note
Flow capacities are laboratory
veried; therefore, regulators may
be sized for 100% ow published
capacities. It is not necessary to reduce
published capacities.
The capacity information on the following pages is
based on percentages of pressure build-up over set
pressure (10%, 20%, 30% or 40%).
Table 12 shows C
v
values at different percentages of
pressure build-up over set pressure and selected
set pressures.
Table13showstheliquidowcapacitiesofthe
Type LR128 relief valve or backpressure regulator
at different percentages of pressure build-up over
set pressure and selected set pressure. Flows are in
gallonsperminute(GPM)andlitersperminute(L/min)
of water.
