Introduction
The Type MR105 regulators are direct-operated, pressure
reducing, high-capacity, multi-purpose regulators.
They are designed to handle pressures up to 400 psig /
27.6 bar and temperatures up to 250°F / 121°C.
This product provides a simple, fast, reliable and
economical way to control and reduce pressure in multi-
purpose applications suitable for different ow media
such as liquid, air and gas. Applications include lube oil
2
systems and any application where speed of response is
critical, minimum differential pressure is a concern or uid
is not free of impurities. Type MR105 regulator with a
low-pressure actuator can be set up to 43 psig / 3.0 bar
and the high-pressure actuator version can be set up
to 300 psig / 20.7 bar.
The units are available in 4 sizes, NPS 1 through 4 /
DN 25 through 100 and are available in several
end connection congurations to meet demands on
application requirements.

Multiple End Connection Options—Type MR105 is
available in several end connection congurations to
meet demands on application requirements.

Easy Drain—Feature allows you to drain the system
without expensive spool pieces saving you time

Easy Bleed—Feature allows you to purge the air
trapped underneath the diaphragm when the highpressure regulator is installed in the upright position,
which improves speed of response.
Principle of Operation
Refer to Figure 2. The Type MR105 is a direct-
operated pressure reducing regulator. Downstream
pressure is registered externally through a 1/2 NPT
control line tapped in the low-pressure actuator bonnet
or in the high-pressure actuator lower casing. When
downstream demand decreases, the pressure under
the actuator diaphragm increases. This pressure
overcomes the regulator setting (which is set by
the regulator control spring). Through the action of
the actuator stem and valve spring, the valve plug
moves closer to the seat ring and reduces ow. When
demand downstream increases, pressure under the
actuator diaphragm decreases. Spring force pushes
the actuator stem downward, the valve plug moves
away from the seat ring and the ow increases
downstream as the regulator opens in response to
the decreased pressure underneath the diaphragm.
The downward motion of the plug allows gas to ow
through the cage into the downstream system.
Increased downstream pressure permits the regulator
to close. The combination of valve spring force and
valve plug unbalance provides positive valve plug
shutoff against the port and upper seals.
Overpressure Protection
Type MR105 regulator with the low-pressure actuator
has outlet pressure ratings lower than the inlet
pressure ratings. Complete downstream overpressure
protection is needed if the actual inlet pressure
exceeds the outlet pressure rating.
Overpressuring any portion of a regulator or
associated equipment may cause personal injury,
leakage or property damage due to bursting
of pressure-containing parts or explosion of
accumulated gas. Provide appropriate pressurerelieving or pressure-limiting devices to ensure

exceeded. Regulator operation within ratings does
not prevent the possibility of damage from external
sources or from debris in the pipeline. A regulator
should be inspected for damage periodically and after
any overpressure condition. Refer to the relief sizing

Information section to determine the required relief

Applications
Note
A linear cage is recommended for
applications where low ow stability
is a concern but it will limit the overall
capacity of the regulator.
Lube Oil Skids (Figure 3)
Installation
Vertical installation with the actuator installed directly
above or below the main valve is recommended but for
optimal performance the actuator should be installed
below the main valve. The use of a bleed valve is
recommended for liquid installations that require the
high pressure actuator to be mounted above the main
valve. The unit will operate in horizontal installations
with the actuator on the side, however, this could result
in premature wear of parts. Make sure that ow will
be in the same direction as that indicated by the body
arrow. Orientation of the two vents should always be
down. Vents may be rotated after regulator installation
so that the vent screens are down.
A control line must be installed to allow outlet pressure
to register on the actuator’s diaphragm. The size of the
control line is indicated in the Specications section,
and should be installed four to eight pipe diameter
downstream of the regulator and in an area of pipe that
is free of turbulence.
An instruction manual is provided with every regulator
shipped. Refer to this for detailed installation,
operation, adjustment and maintenance instructions.
Included is a complete listing of individual parts and
recommended spare parts.
Lube oil skids maintain oil ow to bearings, seals and
servo-controls on critical turbomachinery assets such as
air and gas compressors, steam turbines, power recovery
turbines and power generating equipment. These skids
are essential in keeping lube oil clean at all times and
ensure maximum service life for the equipment. Because
it is critical to maintain a constant ow and pressure of
oil to the equipment, it is normally equipped with two
pumps – the main pump and the auxiliary pump, which
will take over in case of main pump failure – and lters.
In normal condition, the skids operate in the
following manner:
• Lube oil is stored in the tank at atmospheric pressure.
• It is then fed to the main pump (Pump 1) which
pressurizes the lube oil.
• Oil then goes through a lter.
• After ltration, oil ow is split such that a fraction
is sent to a backpressure regulator to limit the supply
pressure to the pressure reducing regulator. 20%
of the pump rate ows through the backpressure
regulator, sending back oil to the oil tank.
• The pressure reducing regulator decreases the
pressure to a safe and allowable range. Flow
through this regulator is 80% of pump rate.

• Oil ows to large rotating equipment lubricating
bearings, e.g. turbines and compressors.
The loss of pressure or ow to the bearings or these
turbomachinery assets may shut down the equipment or
even the whole plant. Failure of the main pump or lter
results in the following upset operation:
• Auxiliary pump (Pump 2) and lter system is
brought into operation while main pump is
in operation.
• Auxiliary pump ramp up rate is one second.
• Auxiliary pump produces a pressure spike
that is beyond the limitations of the pressure
reducing regulator.
• The backpressure regulator relieves the excess
pressure back to the oil tank. Flow rate is 120% of
total pump rate.
Main pump can now be shut down to allow repair of
the system. High capacity direct-operated regulators
are recommended for this type of application where
speed of response is critical. The Type MR105 can
provide fast response to the pressure spikes as
described above while maintaining a constant delivery
pressure of oil to the bearing.
TYPE MR105
WORKER REGULATOR
Wide-Open Monitoring System
Refer to Figure 4. Monitoring system provides
overpressure protection by containment and therefore
does not vent to the atmosphere. It involves a specic
arrangement of two regulators in series which are
congured such that if one regulator fails wide open,
the other regulator assumes control to maintain
the downstream pressure at a set limit. During an
overpressure situation, monitoring systems keep the
customer on line. Testing is also relatively easy. To
perform a periodic test on a monitoring regulator, increase
the outlet set pressure of the worker regulator and watch
the outlet pressure gauge to determine if the monitor
regulator takes over at the appropriate outlet pressure.
In such systems, both regulators are sensing downstream
pressure. During normal operation of a wide-open monitor
conguration, one regulator (worker) is set at the desired
downstream pressure. The other regulator (monitor) is set
at a higher pressure and remains wide open. The lock-up
pressure will be the worker regulator lock-up pressure.
If the worker regulator fails open, the monitor regulator
controls the downstream pressure at its setpoint and the
lock-up pressure will be the monitor lock-up pressure.
Optional materials are available for applications

the recommendations of NACE International Sour
Service Standards.

Pressure drops in excess of allowable will result in
choked ow and possible cavitation damage.
Choked ow is the formation of vapor bubbles in
the liquid owstream causing a condition at the
vena contracta which tends to limit ow through
the regulator. The vena contracta is the minimum
cross-sectional area of the ow stream occurring just
downstream of the actual physical restriction.
Cavitation and ashing are physical changes in the
process uid. The change is from the liquid state to
the vapor state and results from the increase in uid
velocity at or just downstream of the greatest ow
restriction, normally the regulator orice.
