Principle of Operation

Pressure in the controlled system (regulator inlet
pressure) registers beneath the diaphragm of the
regulator and opposes the force provided by the
predetermined spring compression. When regulator

spring force exceeds diaphragm force exerted by
the inlet pressure, the spring will keep the valve plug
closed to prevent flow to the downstream system. As
inlet pressure increases above setpoint, this increase
registers on the diaphragm and the valve plug opens
to allow flow to the downstream system.
