B56 Field Service Regulator

Brand: Itron

The Itron B56 is a versatile pounds-to-pounds reducing regulator with internal relief, designed for applications requiring accurate regulation over a wide range of inlet and delivery pressures.

A malleable iron valve body enables the B56 to handle inlet pressures of up to 1,000 PSIG. The large diaphragm area (9 sq.in.) and level ratio (3.5 to 1) ensure accurate regulation for this type of regulator over an outlet pressure range of 5-60 PSIG.

  • Accurate second stage regulator which can sustain 1000 psig on inlet side in the event of a first stage failure
  • Farm/Suburban tap set at 60 psig or less
  • Lower inlet applications (below 250 psi) where more accurate regulation is required than can be achieved by high pressure field service regulators
  • Lower outlet applications (below 10 psi) where more accurate regulation is required than can be achieved by high pressure field service regulators
