Cost-Effective High-Pressure Fluid Regulators — Engineered Against the Graco P100 Series
FRH260 Pressure Regulator & BRH269 Back Pressure Regulator · for high-pressure paint circulation systems
Batch production of FRH260 regulators and BRH269 back pressure valves — unit pressure-tested before packing
In a high-pressure paint circulation system, film thickness stability is decided less by the pump than by the two valves downstream of it: the pressure regulator at each gun station, and the back pressure regulator on the return line. When both hold pressure steady, film build, atomization and color hold across every gun in the loop.
The Floteck FRH260 and BRH269 are engineered as a direct, cost-effective alternative to the Graco P100-VM fluid regulator (P/N 234260) and P100-RM back pressure regulator (P/N 234268) — the same function, the same mounting class, at a substantially lower cost.

What the numbers mean in practice:
-
A wider adjustment band. 20–170 bar in one valve covers clear coat, waterborne paint, small-part repair and high-pressure airless duty on the same loop. Where a P100 may cover 40–100 bar, one FRH260 can replace two narrow-range valves in mixed workshops — fewer part numbers to stock, fewer changeovers.
-
Higher peak rating. 180 bar max inlet leaves margin for dead-head spikes when guns close.
-
Flow sized for real loops. 30.8 L/min supports four to six guns in parallel — the normal case for in-plant circulation systems. For long large-diameter mains, we help you verify before you buy.
-
The price difference is the point. Same functional class, same mounting interface philosophy, comparable materials — at a fraction of the landed cost of the imported original. That gap is where your project margin comes from.
Built for the Real Conditions of a Spray Shop
Individually boxed with model, part number and production date — batch traceable out of the box
-
All-stainless wetted path. 316 stainless steel with PTFE sealing handles waterborne, solvent-borne and 2K two-component materials.
-
Every part is a spare part. The valve breaks down into 27 items — body, seat, ball, piston, seals, springs — each with its own part number. A worn ball or aged seal is a five-minute fix, not a scrapped valve.
-
Batch production, unit-tested. Every valve is pressure-tested before packing. Cartons are labeled with model, part number and production date for batch traceability. Seal kits and ball/seat sets ship together with the valves if you want them on your shelf.
-
Honest scope of use. These are high-pressure system components (working pressure from 20 bar up). Low-pressure siphon or gravity systems have different physics and different causes of instability — we will tell you when a regulator is not the answer to your problem.
