Product Description

The Type 1290 vapor recovery regulator is a self-
contained, pilot-operated regulator system used for
vapor recovery of blanketing gas. When blanketing gas
pressure inside the vessel rises due to thermal heating
or pump-in operations, the Type 1290 regulator senses
an increase in vessel pressure and vents excessive
internal tank pressure to a vapor recovery storage tank.
