For more information about pressure ratings of valves with tube fitting end connections, see Swagelok . Tubing Data (MS-01-107), page 224. Other cracking pressures are available; contact your authorized Swagelok sales and service representative. For cracking pressure of 25 psi ( bar), maximum back pressure is 3000 psig (206 bar). Maximum back pressure may be limited by the end connection.

To reduce the possibility of dislodging the O ring in systems where pressure surges, shock, or pulses occur, for all 2C and 4C Series valves and for 6C and 8C Series valves with cracking pressures lower than 50 psi ( bar), an optional inlet gasket is available. See page 14 for ordering information. Cracking and reseal pressures may decrease slightly from the ranges listed in this catalog. Alternatively, CH or CP Series valves should be considered.
