Principle of Operation
The T208VR Series vacuum regulators (Figure 2)
are used to maintain a constant vacuum at the
regulator inlet. A decrease in this vacuum (increase
in absolute pressure) beyond this value registers on
the diaphragm and opens the disk. This permits a
downstream vacuum of lower absolute pressure than
the upstream vacuum to restore the upstream vacuum
to its original pressure setting. On the Type T208VR,
pressure registers underneath the diaphragm. The
Type T208VRM has a control line connecting the
diaphragm casing to the vacuum line and an O-ring
stem seal blocking the throat causing registration
pressure to flow through the control line.
