The Genie® Model JTR™ is a revolutionary product containing four stages of pressure regulation in one
stainless steel housing, specifically designed for gas analytical systems. Gone are the days of having to
purchase multiple pressure regulators and manifold them together in series!
The pressure regulation stages of the JTR™ employ a multi-piston design. The first three stages are
ratio controlled and the fourth stage is user adjustable. The advantage of the ratio controlled piston
design is that it ensures the first three stages are always functional, even when the inlet supply pressure
fluctuates. No more headaches of having to constantly readjust the set pressure of each stage.
Having multiple stages of pressure regulation helps to prevent condensation of the sample gas by
compensating for the large amount of Joule-Thomson cooling that is experienced with a single stage
regulator. Preventing condensation of the sample gas has many benefits such as reducing regulator
freeze-ups, preserving sample integrity, and minimizing analyzer down time and maintenance cost.
Unlike traditional single stage regulators, the JTR™ has the ability to autocorrect the outlet pressure
during inlet pressure swings up to 5700 PSI. Inlet pressure swings commonly occur at natural gas
storage facilities and during the use of calibration gas cylinders, making the JTR™ the regulator of choice
for these applications.
It is important to note that some applications will require additional heat to be applied before pressure
regulation.
