The integrated hand unloader lets the operator manually bleed tank pressure for safe, load-free starts, while the adjustable pilot sets precise load and unload pressures for reliable automatic cycling. Choose the configuration below to match your compressor's inlet and outlet connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnload set pressure range: 40 to 250 psig\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSet pressure differential range: 10 to 50 psid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperating temperature range: -65°F to 400°F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMax flow capacity: 20 SCFM @ 100 psig\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePilot inlet: 1\/4\" (-4) Male NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManual aluminum hand unloader (standard)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMuffler on unloader outlet (standard) for quieter venting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody \u0026amp; fittings: brass; O-rings: silicone\/Viton; poppets: reinforced PTFE; springs: stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eConfigurations\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBG1-M\u003c\/strong\u003e — 1\/4\" MNPT pilot inlet × 1\/4\" tube (compression) unloader outlet with muffler\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBG2-M\u003c\/strong\u003e — 1\/4\" MNPT pilot inlet × 1\/4\" female NPT unloader outlet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBG3\u003c\/strong\u003e — 1\/4\" MNPT pilot inlet × 1\/4\" tube unloader outlet (larger unloader inlet)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTypical applications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePressure control and automatic load\/unload on piston air compressors, gas-engine-driven compressors, and pressure-switch-controlled systems where a manual unloading feature is needed for safe starting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Conrader BG-Series venting pilot valve delivers dependable, field-adjustable compressor pressure control in a rugged brass body, with a built-in manual hand unloader and a standard muffler for quieter operation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Conrader","offers":[{"title":"BG1-M — 1\/4″ MNPT In × 1\/4″ Tube Out","offer_id":54270614372627,"sku":"BG1-M-PSI","price":50.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"BG2-M — 1\/4″ MNPT In × 1\/4″ FNPT Out","offer_id":54270614405395,"sku":"BG2-M-PSI","price":50.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"BG3 — 1\/4″ MNPT In × 1\/4″ Tube Out","offer_id":54270614438163,"sku":"BG3-PSI","price":56.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0825\/3141\/8387\/files\/BG.jpg?v=1781115494","url":"https:\/\/aircompressorstore.com\/products\/conrader-bg-series-venting-pilot-valve-hand-unloader","provider":"Warthog Air Compressor Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
