INTRODUCTION

The REGAL 3 is a direct-operated, spring set point pressure regulator,
used for supplying industries and commercial businesses.
As an option, it can be equipped with a slam shut type VSX2 or OS2
which permits the gas flow to be cut off rapidly and totally in the case of
under or over outlet regulator pressure.
As a standard feature for outlet pressure settings inferior or equal to
180 mbar, a relief valve is provided.
On request, this relief valve may be disconnected and replaced by a
dampener.
Upon request, for pressures 180 mbar <Pa <= 1100 mbar, the REGAL 3
can be equipped with a relief valve.
This relief valve can be factory adjusted.

    REGAL 3 OPERATION The Regal 3 is a pressure regulator with expansion achieved by a balanced valve plug and pressure control by a direct-operated actuator. The balanced valve plug/stem assures accuracy independent of inlet and outlet pressures. Pressure control is achieved through the actuator diaphragm, which receives, on the one side, the outlet pressure and, on the other side the spring load, adjusted to the desired value by the set point spring.
