If outlet pressure adjustment is necessary, monitor 
the outlet pressure with a gauge while performing the 
following procedures: 
 1. For units without a handwheel, unscrew the closing 
 cap (key 3) and insert a screw driver blade into the 
 adjusting screw (key 4).
 2. Slowly turn the adjusting screw or handwheel 
 clockwise to increase or counterclockwise to 
 decrease the output pressure setting. 
 3. With the output pressure adjusted to the desired 
 value, replace the closing cap on units without 
 a handwheel. 
 
Shutdown
Close the nearest upstream shut-off valve, then close the 
nearest downstream shut-off valve, and vent pressure from 
the outlet of the regulator. 
Maintenance
Regulator parts are subject to normal wear and must be 
inspected and replaced as necessary. The frequency of 
inspection and replacement of parts depends on the severity 
of service conditions or the requirements of local, state, and 
federal rules and regulations.
!
WARNING
To avoid personal injury or equipment 
damage, do not attempt any maintenance 
or disassembly without rst isolating the 
regulator from system pressure and relieving 
all internal pressure from the regulator. 
This procedure is to be performed if changing the control 
spring for one of a different range, or for inspecting, cleaning, 
or replacing any other parts. Key numbers are referenced 
in Figures 2 and 3. 
 
Note
If sufcient clearance exists, the regulator body 
(key 1) can remain in the line during spring 
replacement or other maintenance procedures. 
Control Spring Replacement
Refer to Figure 2 on units without the handwheel, unscrew 
the closing cap (key 3) and turn the adjusting screw out of 
the spring case. Lift out the control spring (key 5). 
Refer to Figure 3 on units with a handwheel (key 4), turn the 
handwheel counterclockwise until the tension is relieved from 
the control spring (key 5). Unscrew the nut at the base of the 
handwheel and lift the handwheel off the spring case (key 2). 
Lift out the adjusting screw (key 4) and the control spring. 
Replace the control spring and complete the assembly 
by replacing the adjusting screw and the closing cap or 
handwheel. Adjust the spring tension as described in the 
Startup section. 
Diaphragm and Relief Valve Replacement
Remove cap screws (key 14) and separate the spring case 
from the valve body. Remove the control spring (key 5) and the 
diaphragm (key 15) along with the diaphragm head (key 10), 
the relief valve seat (key 9) and the relief valve spring (key 6). 
Separate these parts by removing the pin (key 8) and the spring 
seat (key 7). 
To reassemble the regulator, rst assemble the relief valve 
spring assembly, then replace the relief valve spring assembly, 
the diaphragm, the diaphragm head, and t the spring case 
to the body. Install and tighten cap screws (key 14) in a 
crisscross manner. Adjust the control spring tension as 
described in the Startup section.
