The Maxitrol 210E-2 is a heavy-duty, 2" NPT gas regulator engineered for high-demand industrial and commercial gas-fired applications, including boilers, steam generators, and large-scale furnaces. Featuring a balanced valve design, this regulator effectively eliminates the influence of fluctuating inlet pressures, ensuring a consistent and steady outlet flow. As a lock-up style gas regulator, it provides positive shut-off under no-flow conditions, complying with stringent safety codes for downstream equipment protection. This aluminum-bodied unit handles a maximum inlet pressure of 10 PSI and is factory-equipped to maintain an outlet range of 3-8" w.c., making it ideal for low-pressure manifold systems. The integrated dampening mechanism in the breather outlet and sensing tube minimizes "hunting" or pulsation, delivering precise regulation across a broad range of flow rates up to 12,000,000 BTU/hr. For technicians performing field service, the 210E-2 includes multiple sensing taps for downstream monitoring or differential control. To ensure optimal performance and prevent internal diaphragm fatigue, always mount the Maxitrol 210E-2 in the upright position and verify that the manifold pipe size is within one size of the regulator ports. Key Benefits: Stable Pressure Control: The balanced valve design maintains precise outlet pressure despite varying supply levels. High Capacity: Robust construction supports commercial loads up to 12,000,000 BTU/hr. Lock-Up Functionality: Provides reliable gas pressure regulation and safety shut-off during zero-demand periods. Extreme Environment Ready: Rated for ambient temperatures from -40°F to 200°F. Versatile Fuel Compatibility: Suitable for Natural Gas, LP, and mixed gas systems. Common Questions: What causes regulator "hunting" or pulsing? Pulsation is typically caused by improper venting or placing the regulator too close to turbulence-inducing fittings like elbows. Ensure the vent line is clear and correctly sized. Is this regulator suitable for outdoor use? Yes, but only when used with a Maxitrol 13A25 vent protector to prevent moisture or debris from entering the vent port. Can I mount this in any orientation? No. To maintain lock-up style accuracy and prevent mechanical binding, the unit must be installed in an upright vertical position. This item is not eligible for free shipping.
