Introduction
Scope of the Manual
This Instruction Manual provides installation, startup,
adjustment, maintenance, and parts ordering
information for the Types 627W and 627WH pressure
reducing regulators for liquid service. Only personnel
qualied through training or experience should install,
operate, and maintain these regulators. If there are
any questions concerning these instructions, contact
your local Sales Ofce before proceeding.
Description
The Types 627W and 627WH (Figure 1) are directoperated pressure reducing regulators for liquid
service. On the internal registration version,
downstream pressure is registered internally through
the body to the underside of the diaphragm.
Types 627W and 627WH direct-operated regulators
are also available in a downstream control line version
for external pressure registration. The control line
version has a blocked throat with an O-ring stem

seal and a 1/4 NPT control line connection in the
diaphragm case. The stem seal separates the body
outlet pressure from the diaphragm case.
Specications
Refer to Specications lists for Types 627W and 627WH
constructions on page 2. Specications for a given
regulator as it originally comes from the factory are

Principle of Operation
The Type 627W or 627WH (refer to Figure 2) is a
direct-operated regulator. On the internal registration
version, downstream pressure is registered internally
through the body to the under side of the diaphragm.
When the downstream pressure is at or above the
set pressure, the disk is held against the seat, and
there is no ow through the regulator. When demand
increases, downstream pressure drops slightly allowing
the spring to extend, moving the stem down and the
disk away from the seat. This allows ow through the
body to the downstream system.
Types 627W and 627WH direct-operated regulators
are also available in a downstream control line version.
This version has a stem seal between the body outlet
pressure and diaphragm case. Pressure is registered
under the diaphragm through the 1/4 NPT downstream
control line connection (Figure 2).
Installation
Personal injury, equipment damage,
or leakage due to escaping liquid
or bursting of pressure-containing
parts may result if this regulator is
overpressured or installed where service
Figure 3. Type 627W Operational Schematic (Also Typical of Type 627WH)
connection could exceed the limits given
in Tables 1, 2, and 4 or where conditions
exceed any ratings of the adjacent piping
or piping connections.
To avoid such injury or damage, provide
pressure-relieving or pressure-limiting
devices to prevent service conditions
from exceeding those limits.
!
WARNING
Additionally, the control line could be
broken off the regulator by physical
damage, causing personal injury and
property damage due to escaping liquid.
To avoid such injury and damage, install
the regulators and control line where
they are protected from physical damage.
Liquid pressure control systems should
be designed using engineering practices
to eliminate quick control starting or
stopping of the ow stream, which can
produce water hammer.
Regulator operation within ratings does not preclude
the possibility of damage from debris in the lines or
from external sources. A regulator should be inspected
for damage periodically and after any overpressure
condition. Key numbers referenced in this section are
