  • Page 16 External Secondary Pressure Sensing Line For proper use of COSR with the external secondary pressure sensing line, follow the installation procedure below. Loosen and remove the bolts (nuts) that attach the pilot body to the main body or the pilot valve cover (65 to 150 mm (2 to 6 in)) and remove the pilot body.
  • Page 17: Adjustment

    Adjustment The COSR reducing valve should be properly adjusted for protection of the steam- using equipment against water hammer. 1. It is necessary to blow down all pipe lines thoroughly. The blowdown is especially important if the line is new or has been shut down for a long period of time. Take particular care to ensure that matter such as condensate and dirt does not remain inside the steam-using equipment.
