Specifications

Available Constructions

Type 627W: Direct operated pressure reducing liquid

regulator.
Type 627WH: Type 627W with a diaphragm limiter to
deliver a higher outlet pressure.
Control Line Option: Type 627W or Type 627WH with
a stem seal between the body outlet pressure and
diaphragm case. Pressure is measured under the
diaphragm through the 6,4 mm (1/4-inch) NPT
screwed downstream control line connection.

Installation

Only qualified personnel should install or service
a regulator. Regulators should be installed,
operated, and maintained in accordance with
international and applicable codes and
regulations, and Fisher instructions.

If the regulator vents fluid or a leak develops in
the system, it indicates that service is required.
Failure to take the regulator out of service
immediately may create a hazardous condition.

Personal injury, equipment damage, or leakage
due to escaping fluid or bursting of pressure­containing parts may result if this regulator is
overpressured or is installed where service
conditions could exceed the limits given in the
Specifications section, or where conditions
exceed any ratings of the adjacent piping or piping
connections.

To avoid such injury or damage, provide pressure­relieving or pressure-limiting devices (as required
by the appropriate code, regulation, or standard)
to prevent service conditions from exceeding
limits.

Additionally, physical damage to the regulator
could result in personal injury and property
damage due to escaping fluid. To avoid such injury
and damage, install the regulator in a safe
location.

Clean out all pipelines before installation of the regulator
and check to be sure the regulator has not been damaged
or has collected foreign material during shipping. For NPT
bodies, apply pipe compound to the male pipe threads. For
flanged bodies, use suitable line gaskets and approved
piping and bolting practices. Install the regulator in any
position desired, unless otherwise specified, but be sure
flow through the body is in the direction indicated by the
arrow on the body.

1. The pressure/temperature limits in this installation guide and any applicable
standard or code limitation should not be exceeded.

Note

It is important that the regulator be installed so that
the vent hole in the spring case is unobstructed at all
times. For outdoor installations, the regulator should
be located away from vehicular traffic and positioned
so that water, ice, and other foreign materials cannot
enter the spring case through the vent. Avoid placing
the regulator beneath eaves or downspouts, and be
sure it is above the probable snow level.

Overpressure Protection

The recommended pressure limitations are stamped on the
regulator nameplate. Some type of overpressure protection
is needed if the actual inlet pressure exceeds the maximum
operating outlet pressure rating. Overpressure protection
should also be provided if the regulator inlet pressure is
greater than the safe working pressure of the downstream
equipment.

Regulator operation below the maximum pressure limitations
does not preclude the possibility of damage from external
sources or debris in the line. The regulator should be inspected
for damage after any overpressure condition.

Startup

The regulator is factory set at approximately the midpoint of
the spring range or the pressure requested, so an initial
adjustment may be required to give the desired results. With
proper installation completed and relief valves properly
adjusted, slowly open the upstream and downstream shutoff
valves.

Adjustment

To change the outlet pressure, remove the closing cap or
loosen the locknut and turn the adjusting screw clockwise
to increase outlet pressure or counterclockwise to decrease
pressure. Monitor the outlet pressure with a test gauge
during the adjustment. Replace the closing cap or tighten
the locknut to maintain the desired setting.

Taking Out of Service (Shutdown)

To avoid personal injury resulting from sudden
release of pressure, isolate the regulator from all
pressure before attempting disassembly.
