The regulator can be panel or pipe mounted. These regulators are unaffected by vibration and mounting position. A set point locknut is provided. The PRG101 has two ¼ NPT gauge ports available for mounting OMEGA gauges for local indication. The PRG501 is ideal for having a dial gauge reading when the unit is panel mounted.
BASIC MECHANISM The units use a piston to control a high gain pneumatic two-stage servo system. When increasing the regulated pressure the handwheel is turned clockwise, forcing the measuring capsule/piston assembly downward. This pushes the pilot diaphragm and control diaphragm downward. As a result, the main valve opens and the supply pressure enters the regulator.
INSTALLATION Mounting The PRG101 is usually panel mounted into a minimum 11.5mm hole. Direct pipe mounting is also possible. To install on a panel remove the knob (grub screw) tension nut and mounting nut. Insert into the panel and replace the nuts and knob. The mounting nut should be retightened to a torque of 5Nm;...
