48HL: Commissioning Instructions
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
•Ensure that this product is suitable for the chosen application.
•Installation, adjustment and maintenance by authorised, trained personnel only.
•When being fitted to an appliance, refer to the appliance manufacturers instructions.
FITTING REGULATOR INTO PIPEWORK (A)
1. The unit should not be installed in a corrosive environment.
2. The ambient temperature (surface temperature) should be within the limits stated on the
regulator catalogue.
3. Check the maximum allowable pressure on the regulator nameplate against the
installation specification.
4. Remove the plastic protection plugs from inlet and outlet (and breather if applicable).
5. Ensure that installation pipework is thoroughly clean.
6. The direction of gas flow must be the same as the arrow(s) on the regulator body.
7. Install the regulator into pipework using a jointing compound approved to national standards.
INSTALLATION OF VENT LINE (B) IF REQUIRED
8. Remove the plastic protection plug.
9. Connect the vent line (1/4" connection), using a jointing compound approved to national
standards, and lead to atmosphere in accordance with national standards. Ensure that no
water can penetrate vent pipeline.
INSTALLATION OF EXTERNAL IMPULSE LINE (C) IF REQUIRED
10. Remove the plastic protection plug.
11. Connect the impulse line (1/8” connection), using a jointing compound approved to
national standards, and lead to a point downstream not less than five times the nominal
pipe diameter from the outlet.
FOR PRE - SET REGULATORS
12. Turn off downstream valves.
13. Slowly turn on inlet supply.
14. Commission downstream appliance(s).
SETTING OF OUTLET PRESSURE (D)
15. Turn off downstream valves.
16. Remove the top cap.
17. Insert a flat bladed screwdriver into the slot in the end of the spring adjusting screw.
18. Turn anticlockwise to reduce pressure on the loading spring.
19. Slowly turn on inlet supply.
20. Increase loading on the spring by turning the spring adjusting screw clockwise until the
required outlet pressure, plus approximately 2.5mbar, is obtained.
21. Commission downstream appliance(s).
22. Trim the outlet pressure of the regulator, if necessary, when normal working flow rates
have been achieved.
23. Replace the top cap (and seal if necessary).
IF REQUIRED OUTLET PRESSURE CANNOT BE ACHIEVED WITH SPRING FITTED. (E) & (F).
24. Choose a loading spring from the catalogue that will give the required outlet pressure range.
25. Turn spring adjusting screw anticlockwise (to reduce loading on spring).
26. Carefully lift protruding end of locking lever just clear of adjusting bush (1), whilst in this
position turn (octagon shaped) adjusting bush assembly anticlockwise until disengaged
(2). The adjusting bush assembly can then be removed from the top cover.
27. Remove the loading spring.
28. Insert the new spring - take the label from the spares kit bag and stick it below the
nameplate of the regulator.
29. Screw top spring holder anticlockwise to within 10mm of underside of adjusting bush.
30. Position underside of top spring holder on to loading spring.
31. Align slots in top spring holder with splines in top cover and push adjusting bush
assembly into top cover as far as possible.
32. Turn adjusting bush assembly clockwise until locking lever snaps into any of the three
locking castellations in the top cover.
33. Adjust the outlet pressure, as described above, until the required setting is found.
34. Replace the top cap (and seal if necessary).
Warning! Incorrect installation, adjustment, modification, operation and maintenance may
cause injury or damage.
Read instructions before use. This control must be installed in accordance with the rules in force.

14. Remove the spring location washer (22).
15. Remove top diaphragm plate (23).
16. Carefully remove main diaphragm (9).
17. Remove diaphragm spacer (24).
18. Withdraw the valve spindle (2) through the bottom plug opening in body (3).
19. Remove "O" ring seal (30) from the valve spindle (2).
20. Withdraw valve disc holder (4) complete with valve disc (5) through bottom plug opening in body (3).
21. Unscrew the secondary diaphragm screws (25) then lift off the secondary diaphragm assembly (8), (26), (27)
& (28) through the top of the body (3).
22. Remove valve spacer (6) from secondary diaphragm assembly.
23. Remove secondary diaphragm mounting plate gasket (7).
24. Unscrew secondary diaphragm clamping plate screws (28).
25. Remove secondary diaphragm clamping plate (8).
26. Carefully remove the secondary diaphragm (27).
27. Check that hole in impulse tube (29) is clear. DO NOT REMOVE FROM BODY.
28. Wipe valve seat and body clean of any dirt particles, taking care not to damage sealing surface in body.
29. Inspect all diaphragms and soft seals and replace where necessary (a spares kit is available for this
purpose).
Rebuilding procedure:
Note: Inspect all sealing 'O' rings, diaphragms, valves discs, gaskets and replace where necessary (a soft
spares kit is available for this purpose).
The use of Molykote 111 "O" ring lubricant is recommended during the rebuild- unless for use with oxygen when
no lubricant should be used.
1. Replace "O" ring seal (30) over threaded end of valve spindle (2) until it rests against shoulder of spindle.
2. Assemble valve disc (5) onto valve disc holder (4) with bead uppermost.
3. Replace valve disc assembly (4) & (5) over threaded end of valve spindle (2) with chamfer around centre
facing downward.
4. Load valve spindle assembly (2) through bottom plug opening in body (3). This will ease assembly of valve
spacer (6) and secondary diaphragm.
5. Replace bottom plug (1) in bottom aperture of body ensuring that valve spindle assembly (2) is located correctly.
6. Load the valve spacer (6) through the top of the body (counter bore upwards) onto the valve spindle
assembly (2).
7. Place the secondary diaphragm (27) on top of the secondary diaphragm clamping plate (8) with the internal
radii on the secondary diaphragm clamping plate (8) facing upward. Ensure the holes in each component
line up correctly.
8. Place the secondary diaphragm mounting plate (26), with counterbore facing downward, onto the
secondary diaphragm (27) and secondary diaphragm clamping plate (8). Ensure the holes in each
component line up correctly.
9. Secure secondary diaphragm mounting plate (26) to the secondary diaphragm (27) and secondary
diaphragm clamping plate (8) using screws (28) and tighten.
10. Place secondary diaphragm mounting plate gasket (7) in position on top of flange in body (3).
11. With heads of screws (28) on underside, place the secondary diaphragm assembly over valve spindle (2),
ensure the secondary diaphragm fits into the counterbore of the valve spacer (6). Orientate the secondary
diaphragm assembly so that the holes for screws (25) and impulse tube (29) are in line.

counterbore of the valve spacer (6) around the secondary diaphragm (27).
14. Place the main diaphragm (9) with the convolution uppermost in position ensuring that the bead is located
in the groove in the body (3).
15. Position the top diaphragm plate (23) and spring location washer (22) onto valve spindle (2), then screw nut
(12) onto spindle. DO NOT TIGHTEN.
16. Remove the bottom plug (1).
