ISSUED: May, 2004
Supersedes: May, 2004
Doc. #84-007-000, Rev. 4
INSTALLATION
1. Refer to above caution.
2. Maximum pressure rating is 300 psig (21 bar). Temperature range is
32°F to 150°F (0°C to 66°C).
3. Install the unit ahead of and as close as possible to where regulated air
is needed.
4. Install the unit with the air flowing through the body in the direction
indicated by the arrow.
5. Install the same pipe size unit as the pipe size in use. Avoid using
fittings, couplings etc. that restrict the airflow, unless maximum flow is
not needed.
6. Regulator may be installed so that adjusting handle is in any position.
Attach gauge to one 1/4" gauge port and plug the other 1/4" gauge port.
7. Turning the adjusting screw clockwise raises the regulated pressure,
and turning it counterclockwise lowers the regulated pressure.
MAINTENANCE
1. At least every six months remove bottom plug and clean plug, body and valve.
2. TO DISASSEMBLE: Shut off air supply and vent air lines on both sides
of regulator. Turn adjusting screw counterclockwise to relieve
compression or spring. Remove cover, retaining ring, bonnet, spring
disc, and piston. By removing bottom plug and spring, the valve can be
removed from the bottom of the regulator.
3. TO ASSEMBLE: Relubricate all seals and sealing surfaces with lubricant.
Replace valve, bottom spring, and bottom plug. Insert piston into body,
place spring, spring disc, and bonnet in position, and install retaining ring
and cover. RETAINING RING MUST BE FULLY SEATED IN GROOVE.
4. IF UNIT WILL NOT REGULATE TO PRESSURE NEEDED, OR IF
PRESSURE DROP BECOMES EXCESSIVE: Remove bottom plug,
spring and valve. Clean and check o-rings, valve and valve seat for
wear or damage. Relubricate o-rings with lubricant. Replace worn or
damaged parts.
