1. The pressure/temperature limits in this Instruction Manual and any applicable standard or code limitation should not be exceeded.

Intended Purpose

The ET124 and ET134 Series temperature regulators
are designed to reduce steam pressure and regulate
the flow of steam to heater to control the temperature.
No separate reducing valve is required. The heater
pressure is automatically limited to the pressure limit
spring setting. The Type ET134 has an adjustable
range between 5 to 30 psi / 0.34 to 2.07 bar. The
Type ET214 has an adjustable range between 20
to 125 psi / 1.38 to 8.62 bar. Slight variations at the
thermostat throttle the steam pressure according to the
demand for heat.

Principle of Operation

The regulator is operated by its initial steam pressure.
The main valve is normally closed, being held so
by initial pressure on the disk and by an internal
main spring. The pilot is opened by compressing the
pressure limit spring.
When steam is turned on, it flows to the pilot up
through the top flange. See Figure 2. At the No. 8B
tee between the valve and the pilot the flow divides,
one branch being connected to bleedport No. 211,
the other to restriction elbow No. 211, the other to
restriction elbow No. 5A and the underside of the main
valve diaphragm. Bleedport No. 211 restricts the flow,
builds pressure under the diaphragm and opens the
main valve. Restriction No. 5A steadies the operation
