The regulator is available with the following options: Anti-tamper Oxygen Service For more information about hazards and risks of oxygen enriched systems see the Swagelok Oxygen System Safety technical report (MS-06-13). Cleaning and packaging to ensure compliance with product cleanliness requirements stated in ASTM G93 Level C is available.
Installation CAUTION Do not use the regulator as a shutoff device. A level of leakage across the regulator seat can occur during normal operation. Points of Attention Before Installation This regulator can be equipped with a variety of different options and connections. Before installing the regulator you should fully understand the functions of the supplied options and the suitability of your particular regulator for the intended application.
Operation Required Tools for Operation A 19 mm open-ended wrench is required for changing the set pressure on a standard regulator. A 19 mm and 32 mm open-ended wrench are required for anti-tamper regulators. Points of Attention Before Operation CAUTION The product can be hot or cold, depending on the environmental temperature and the process media temperature.
To reduce maintenance related system downtime to a minimum, either during commissioning or normal operation, Swagelok recommends having maintenance kits readily available on site. The need for maintenance kits is particularly important during the commissioning phase of a system installation due to residual assembly debris remaining in the system.
Points of Attention Before Removal from the System Swagelok recommends removing the regulator from the system for servicing and maintenance. Follow all local system safety and maintenance procedures when removing the regulator. WARNING Before removing a regulator from the system, to avoid personal injury, you must: •...
Maintenance kit components will be supplied preassembled where practicable to aid reassembly. Swagelok recommends replacing all O-rings removed during disassembly. Swagelok recommends that dynamic O-rings should be lightly lubricated per Table 2. NOTICE All threaded components must be lightly lubricated per Table 2 before reassembly to avoid...
Reassembly BS(H)10 Series: Diaphragm Sensing 1. Fit the seat O-ring (4) onto the seat (3). 2. Lightly lubricate the seat threads (3) and insert into the body (5) using the seat insertion tool. 3. Torque the seat to 7 lbf·ft (10 N·m). 4.
BS(H)15 Series: Diaphragm Sensing 1. Follow steps 1 and 2 of the BS(H)10 series diaphragm sensing reassembly procedure. 2. Torque the seat to 11 lbf·ft (15 N·m). 3. Follow step 4 of the BS(H)10 series diaphragm sensing reassembly procedure. 4. Fit the poppet O-ring (6) into the body plug (1) and lightly lubricate it. 5.
Testing Swagelok recommends that the regulator be tested for seat and shell leakage to atmosphere. A well performing regulator will not show any indication of leaking. If any evidence of a leak is identified this must be rectified. Any damaged components must be replaced.
Troubleshooting Symptom Cause Remedy Constant leakage from the outlet before the set pressure is A damaged seat and/or poppet. Replace the seat and/or poppet. reached. Leakage around the body plug. A damaged O-ring. Replace the O-ring. A damaged diaphragm or O-ring. Replace the diaphragm or O-ring.
