Installation
WARNING
!
Only qualied 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 uid 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 uid or bursting
of pressure-containing parts may result
if this regulator is overpressured or
is installed where service conditions
could exceed the limits given in the
Specications section, or where
conditions exceed any ratings of the
adjacent piping or piping connections.
To avoid such injury or damage,
provide pressure-relieving or pressurelimiting 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
uid. 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 threaded NPT bodies, apply
pipe compound to the male pipe threads. For anged
bodies, use suitable line gaskets and approved piping
and bolting practices. Install the regulator in any
position desired, unless otherwise specied, but be
sure ow through the body is in the direction indicated
by the arrow on the body.
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 trafc 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)
WARNING
!
To avoid personal injury resulting
from sudden release of pressure,
isolate the regulator from all pressure
before attempting disassembly.
