Prevost ALTO Regulator
Precision Pressure Control for Peak Tool Performance
The Prevost ALTO Regulator is a high-performance pneumatic component designed to deliver a stable, precise air supply to your tools and machinery. In any compressed air system, pressure fluctuations can lead to inconsistent tool performance and increased wear. The ALTO series solves this by providing “set-and-forget” accuracy, ensuring that downstream equipment receives the exact PSI required for optimal operation.
Key Features
- Exceptional Pressure Stability: Engineered with a high-sensitivity internal diaphragm, the ALTO regulator maintains a constant output pressure even when the compressor’s tank pressure fluctuates or high-demand tools are cycled on and off.
- Locking Adjustment Knob: Features a robust “push-to-lock” system. Once you have dialed in your desired pressure, simply push the knob down to lock it in place, preventing accidental adjustments from vibrations or bumps.
- Integrated Pressure Gauge: Most ALTO models come equipped with a clear, easy-to-read flush-mounted or circular gauge, allowing for real-time monitoring of your system’s performance.
- Modular Design: Part of the ALTO “FRL” (Filter-Regulator-Lubricator) family. Its modular construction allows it to be easily coupled with ALTO filters or lubricators using simple joiner kits, creating a customized air preparation station.
- Durable Construction: Built with a high-quality metallic body and reinforced technical polymers to withstand the rigors of industrial environments, from automotive shops to manufacturing floors.

Why Choose the ALTO Series?
Air tools are expensive investments. Running them at pressures higher than recommended leads to premature seal failure, while lower pressures reduce torque and efficiency. The Prevost ALTO Regulator provides the precise control needed to maximize tool life and improve work quality. Its sleek, compact profile makes it ideal for mounting directly on machines or as part of a main-line air distribution system.
Ideal Applications
- Paint Spray Booths: Ensuring a steady, non-pulsing air supply for a flawless finish.
- Workstations: Providing localized pressure control for individual pneumatic tools like impact wrenches or nailers.
- Pneumatic Machinery: Protecting sensitive cylinders and valves from over-pressurization.
- Clean Rooms & Labs: Precision regulation for sensitive air-driven instruments.
