gauge to monitor the tank blanketing gas pressure 
when making adjustments.
3. After making the adjustment, tighten the locknut 
(key 20).
Shutdown
1. Close the nearest upstream shutoff valve and then 
close the nearest downstream shutoff valve to vent 
the pressure in the regulator properly.
2. Close the valve in the control line and vent the 
pressure in the lower casing.
3. Open the vent valve between the regulator and 
the downstream shutoff valve nearest to it. All 
pressure between these shutoff valves is released 
through the open vent valve, since a Type T205B 
remains open in response to the decreasing 
downstream pressure.
Maintenance
Due to normal wear or damage that may occur 
from external sources, inspect and maintain the 
regulator periodically. The frequency of inspection 
and replacement depends on the severity of service 
conditions, test results found during the annual 
test, and on applicable codes and regulations. In 
accordance with applicable National or Industry 
codes, standards and regulations/recommendations, 
all hazards covered by specic tests after nal 
assembling before applying the CE marking, shall 
also be covered after every subsequent reassembly at 
installation site, in order to ensure that the equipment 
will be safe throughout its intended life.
!
WARNING
To avoid personal injury, property damage, 
or equipment damage caused by sudden 
release of pressure or explosion of 
accumulated gas, do not attempt any 
maintenance or disassembly without 
pressure and relieving all internal pressure 
from the regulator.
Regulators that have been disassembled 
for repair must be tested for proper 
operation before being returned to 
service. Only parts manufactured by 
Regulator Technologies should be used 
for repairing Fisher®regulators. Restart 
gas utilization equipment according to 
normal startup procedures.
General Maintenance
1. Visually inspect the regulator and its parts for 
any damage. 
2. Ensure tight connections, tight seals and safe 
operation. If there is an evidence of leakage 
or unstable internal motion, a rebuild with seal 
replacement and relubrication may be necessary.
3. Observe the blanketing pressure.
4. Inspect the inlet pressure for the proper pressure 
(stamped on the regulator nameplate). 
Body Area
Perform the following procedure to gain access to 
orice and body O-ring.  Release all pressure from the 
diaphragm casing and open the disk assembly before 
performing the following steps. Key numbers are 
referenced in Figure 6.
1. Remove the cap screws (key 2), and separate the 
diaphragm casing (key 4) from the body (key 1).
2. Remove and inspect the body seal O-ring (key 11) 
and the backup ring (key 49).
3. Inspect and replace the orice (key 5) if necessary.  
Protect the orice seating surface during 
disassembly and assembly. Lubricate the threads 
of the replacement orice with a good grade of light 
grease and install with 340 to 470 inch-pounds / 
38.5 to 53.1 N•m of torque.
4. Place back-up ring (key 49) into the body 
(key 1). Then place the body seal O-ring 
(key 11) into the body. 
5. Place the diaphragm casing (key 4) on the body 
(key 1). Secure the diaphragm casing to the 
body with the cap screws (key 2) using 90 to 
126 inch-pounds / 10.2 to 14.2 N•m of torque.
Diaphragm and Spring Case Area
Perform the following procedure to gain access to 
the spring, diaphragm, lever assembly, stem and disk 
assembly.  Release all pressure from the diaphragm 
casing before performing the following steps. 
Key numbers are referenced in Figure 6.
1. 
remove the closing cap (key 22) and closing cap 
gasket (key 25). 
loosen the locknut (key 20).
