2 Models 243-12-1 and 243-12-2 in SCFH of Natural Gas
(0.6 Specific Gravity - 14.65 psia - 60F)

Last capacity figure in each group indicates maximum allowable inlet pressure (except
for emergency conditions).
Heavy stepped line indicates the recommended maximum capacity and inlet pressure
for each orifice for operation within the optimum performance range.

 Cold Working Pressure (CWP) Rating
Rating of valve at ambient conditions,
usually from 20 to 100F
Pressure Rating
The maximum operating pressure established by the
Manufacturer
Temperature Ratings
The maximum and minimum temperatures at which
the valve can be used.

 Stamped vessel pressure ratings VS flange ratings
Stamped vessels are design to any working pressure
Flange pressure rating must match or exceed the maximum
working pressure of the unit
Stamped vessel pressure ratings
Maximum working pressures are from 20 to 100F and
subject to derating at elevated temperatures per ASME Code
Test pressures
Covered by ASME Code and are only tested to 1.3 x Design
Working Pressure
Buyer must specify a higher test pressure if desired
