9.1 Fields of Application

Self-operated regulators are available for temperature, pressure, flow, and differential pressure control. They are suitable for all those applications where the demand for accuracy on the controlled variable is not too high and the reference variable remains constant over a long time - often during the entire useful life.

Self-operated regulators are especially suitable for applications that would otherwise require high investment due to the auxiliary energy supply system additionally required by other equipment. Therefore, self-operated regulators are frequently used in the wide-ranging networks of gas, water and heat suppliers.

Since self-operated regulators are very reliable in fulfilling their switching and control functions, even or especially when the energy supply fails, they are ideally suited as safety equipment. Typetested devices designed according to the applicable regulations can be used in many fields of application and, at the same time, they have a good price/performance ratio compared to other solutions.
