Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can the B73G be used with fluids other than air?
A: No. It is intended for industrial compressed-air systems only. Consult Norgren for other media.
Q: When should a metal bowl be selected?
A: When the environment contains solvents, ester-based oils, or other substances incompatible with polycarbonate, or when higher pressure/temperature is required.
Q: How is the pressure setting locked?
A: Push the knob down (knob models) or tighten the lock-nut (T-bar models). A tamper-resistant cover is available.
