In normal operating conditions, the following forces act on the control element (7): • on the upper side: spring load (9), thrust resulting from the control pressure (Cp) in the control chamber (10) and weight of the mobile unit;...
  • Page 36: Intended Use

    If no written approval is provided, use shall be considered improper. In the event of “improper use”, PIETRO FIORENTINI S.p.A. shall not be held liable for any damage caused to people or property, and any type of warranty on the equipment shall be deemed void.
  • Page 37: Technical Features/Performance

    The APERFLUX 851 equipment is a medium and high pressure regulator. APERFLUX 851 is a “top entry” type regulator that can be easily serviced and equipped with on-site accessories. The regulation system is balanced and guarantees a stable outlet pressure even when the inlet pressure varies.
  • Page 38: Possible Configurations

    4.5 - POSSIBLE CONFIGURATIONS The APERFLUX 851 equipment can have different configurations through the installation of the following accessories: • DB/851 silencer • PM/819 monitor • SB/82 incorporated slam-shut valve • HB/97 incorporated slam-shut valve* * available for nominal diameters DN 100,150, 200, 250.
  • Page 39: Incorporated Silencer

    4.5.1 - INCORPORATED SILENCER The DB/851 silencer (1) is incorporated between the head (2) and the main body of the equipment (3). The DB/851 silencer reduces the noise generated by the equipment during the lamination process. Noise is absorbed precisely where it is generated, which prevents it from propagating. pstream pressUre ownstream pressUre ontrol pressUre...

    4.5.2.1 - INCORPORATED MONITOR The PM/819 monitor (1) is assembled directly on the body of the service regulator (2), converting the equipment into two pressure regulators with a common valve body. The two regulators have the following characteristics: • they are controlled by two distinct pilots and by independent servomotors; •...
  • Page 42 OPERATION OF THE INCORPORATED MONITOR IN STAND-BY CONDITIONS: The PM/819 incorporated monitor (1) is normally open during standard operation as pilot (2) calibration is higher than that of the main regulator’s (4) pilot. The passage of the pre-regulator pressure (Pep), generated by the R14/A pre-regulator (5) through the completely open pilot (2), also keeps the PM/819 incorporated monitor (1) fully open.
