III. PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
1. The differential Model 1000HP is also available
in two options: 1000HP-1+6 is single diaphragm
con struc tion; 1000HP-1+8 is double diaphragm
con struc tion. The dou ble diaphragm construction
prevents the loading fl uid from direct mixing with
the system fl uid in case of di a phragm failure.
2. Movement occurs as pressure variations register
on the diaphragm. One pressure is the outlet (p
or down stream pressure, which registers on the
“un der neath” side of the diaphragm. The second
pressure reg is tered is the loading (P
in the spring chamber “above” the di a phragm. The
range spring determines the differential pres sure
level (P
). As outlet (P2) pressure drops, the
Set
range spring pushes the diaphragm down, open ing the port; as outlet (P2) pressure in creas es,
the diaphragm pushes up and the port closes.

5. The Model 1000 includes an aspiration jet effect,
due to the clearance of the piston from the body
near the outlet. These clearances vary as to
whether the fl uid is a gas (including steam), a liquid,
or a viscous liquid (required Opt-27). Jets must
be selected to match one of these three general
fl uids. An improper jet will reduce per for mance.
NOTE: The regulator requires minimum output

This is a function of the ratio of the port area to the

6. For a 1000HP-1+6 (single diaphragm) design, a
com plete diaphragm failure will cause the fl uids
to mix in the spring chamber or loading pressure
piping system.
7. For a 1000HP-1+8 (double diaphragm) design, a
complete diaphragm failure will cause the reg u la tor
to fail open, leaking fl uid through the annular ring
vent hole.
NOTE:Composition (soft) diaphragms may be
utilized only on -1+6 single diaphragm con struc tion.
8. For viscous fl uids normally heated (heavy fuel
oil), it may be desirable to include a fl ow-through
spring cham ber, the -65 Option.

IV. STARTUP
1. Start with the block valves closed. A by pass valve
may be used to maintain outlet pressure in the
down stream system without changing the fol low ing steps.
2. Remove closing cap and relax the range spring
by turning the adjusting screw counterclockwise
(CCW) a minimum of three (3) full revolutions.
This reduces the outlet (downstream) pressure
set point.
3. If it is a “hot” piping system, and equipped with
a bypass valve, slowly open the bypass valve
to pre-heat the system piping and to allow slow
expansion of the piping. Ensure proper steam
trap operation if installed. Closely monitor outlet
(down stream) pressure, via gauge, to en sure not
over-pressurizing. NOTE: If no bypass valve is
in stalled, extra caution should be used in starting
up a cold system; i.e. do everything slow ly.

stud (13) with the stud (13) passing through
the hole of the bar. Again, pull fi rmly up to
remove mech a nism slack. One of three po si tions will be reached:
a. Diaphragm setting too high. Pusher plate
stud (13) will lift the fl at bar over 0.020"
(.51 mm).
b. Diaphragm setting acceptable. Bar lifted
between 0.010"–0.020" (.25–.51 mm).
c. Diaphragm setting too low. Bar lifted
less than 0.010" (.25 mm), or failed to be
lifted.

recessed piston (24) area where the seat
disc (25) is placed. If the edges which form
the recess of the piston (24) are worn, also
replace piston (24) and seat disc screw
(26).
8. Place piston collar (23) over the end of piston
(24), ensuring that the spherical surface of
the piston (24) and the piston collar (23) bear
against each other.
9. Clean the body (1) cavity through the open ings. Clean the “jet area” just inside the body
(1) outlet end through which the piston (24)
projects. Clean all parts to be reused.
10. Use special care cleaning the fl at mating sur-
faces of the body (1) and cylinder (21) shoulder,
as this pres sur ized joint is metal-to-metal with
no gasket. (See NOTE next step.)
11. Lubricate the cylinder (21) threads lightly with
thread sealant. Insert the entire trim stack into
the body (1) opening and screw until tightly
seated. Using the hammer and wrench han dle,
impact the cylinder (21) into the body (1).
NOTES: 1. Take special precaution to keep
pis ton collar from getting “cocked” at an angle
when inserted.
2. On 2" brass bodies (1) with brass trim, a TFE
body O-ring (43) is utilized to seal be tween the
body (1) and the cylinder (21) subassembly.
This O-ring is not indicated on drawings.
12. Inspect the body (1) outlet end to ensure that
the piston (24) is located nearly concentric to
the body (1) bore in the jet area with clear ance.
Under no con di tion should the piston (24) be
touching the body (1). Use two pencils or similar shafts to place in inlet and outlet ends of
regulator and alternately push on each end of
the piston (24) to ensure free movement. (Total
move ment is ap prox i mate ly 1/8" (3mm).
c. Place seat disc (25) into recessed end of
piston (24).

13. Bench test unit for suitable operation and
seat leak age. NOTE: Regulators are not normally tight shutoff devices. Pressure
must build above setpoint for best shutoff.
14. Soap solution test around cylinder (21)-to-
body (1) connection for leakage. Test pres sure should be a min i mum of 100 psig at the
inlet or actual service con di tions if higher.

1. Erratic operation; chattering.
Possible Causes Remedies
A. Oversized regulator; inadequate rangeability. A1. Check actual fl ow conditions, resize regulator forminimum and maximum fl ow.A2. Increase fl ow rate.A3. Decrease regulator pressure drop; decrease inlet
pressure by placing a throttling orifi ce in inlet piping union.
A4. Replace full orifi ce with reduced orifi ce; i.e. new cylinder required.
B. Worn piston/cylinder; inadequate guiding. B. Replace trim.
C. Flow induced instability. C1. Get straight runs of piping (5 diameters upstream,
10 downstream) to and from regulator.
C2. Ensure outlet velocity is not excessive; use pipe
reducer close to regulator outlet.
C3. Add next higher range spring. Contact factory.
C4. If composition diaphragm, switch to metal
diaphragm.
D. Improper (oversized) jet. D. Replace existing piston with new piston with
proper jet.
E. Plugged trim. E. Remove trim and check for plugged holes in
piston, or debris in guide zone or jet zone.
F. Unstable loading pressure. F1. Stabilize loading pressure; i.e. pump, control
valve, etc.
F2. Air in loading piping. Vent spring chamber.
