Vaporizing Regulators

The AURA EXV provides steady and reliable heat to vaporize and maintain gas phase of samples for analysis. AURA’s encapsulated seat design consolidates the numerous moving internal components of a standard regulator design into one single piece, allowing for ease of maintenance and minimizing potential failure points. Protected by a 10-micron 360° filter, the encapsulated seat provides significantly more filtration of impurities than the standard pressed-in disk. The encapsulated seat also filters damaging particles from all inlet ports rather than just the pipeline port. The EXV’s proprietary labyrinth style flow path provides steady and reliable heat. Unlike a wire wrapped design, the EXV keeps the sample in contact with the heated surface longer as it traces its way through the large orifice flow path. This feature minimizes sample condensation as it travels through the regulator and across the pressure drop of the seat.

AURA’s proprietary machining process enables metal to metal seals to ensure the highest leak integrity available and yields surface finishes of 4-25 Ra designed to reduce corrosion. Each EXV regulator is 100% helium leak checked and undergoes multiple flow and function tests to ensure the highest levels of durability and performance.

The steam-heated version is also available with Dursan® LS inert and anti-corrosive technology that provides superior corrosive resistance versus exotic metals in highly acidic or caustic applications, making the EXV the right choice for vaporizing applications.
