Product Overview
The FESTO LR-D-MAXI (Part No. 186455) is a precision pneumatic pressure regulator from Festo’s D-series regulator family, engineered to deliver stable, repeatable downstream pressure control in compressed air systems. As a diaphragm-type pressure regulating valve, it reduces fluctuating primary (inlet) pressure to a constant, adjustable secondary (outlet) pressure, protecting downstream actuators, valves, and instrumentation from pressure surges and fluctuations. The LR-D-MAXI is a MAXI-size unit, offering high flow capacity for demanding pneumatic circuits, and features a lockable adjusting knob with a pressure gauge port for direct visual monitoring. Its balanced poppet and rolling diaphragm design ensures minimal pressure hysteresis and excellent regulation characteristics across the full flow range, making it a reliable choice for industrial automation, process control, and machine-building applications.
