PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The ‘’F" series of spring loaded, diaphragm controlled, balanced valve design regulators are suitable
for low, medium and high outlet pressure. The ‘’F" series regulators are supplied with internal
sensing lines and are preset for an optional connection to an external sensing line by the customer.
The special regulator design combined with a balanced valve results in:

* High flow rate coefficient,

* High accuracy, even at maximum flow rates,
* Reduced response times,
* No internal leakage at zero flow rate,
* Periodical maintenance without disassembling the body from the pipework,

Suitable for gas

 SAFETY SLUM SHUT VALVE

The F series of regulators can be fitted with safety shut-off valve for overpressure (OPSO) orcombined
under-and-over pressure (UPSO/OPSO) protection. Shut-off gas flow when the outlet pressure of the
regulator increases or/and decreases. The Slum shut valve trip pressure can easily be adjusted
independently of the regulator set point. Built internal bypass, for balancing pressure before
relatching the safety shut-off valve, is operated by pulling the valve stem. Possibility of application of
devices for remote signal and remote control.

 STANDARD INSTALLATION

Regulator continuously monitors outlet pressure. Regulator reduce

high and unstable pressure.

INLET PRESSURE OUTLET PRESSURE ATMOSPHERE

MONITOR and ACTIVE INSTALLATION

Monitor regulator is generally installed upstream of the active regulator. Although the function of
the monitor regulator is different, the two regulators are virtually identical from the point of view
of their mechanical components. The only difference is that the monitor is set at a higher pressure
than the active regulator. Flow coefficients of the regulator plus line monitor system are about 15%
lower than those of the active regulator alone.

Sizing of regulators is usually made on the basis of Cg valve and KG flow rate coeffcients. Flow rates
at the fully open position and the various operating conditions are related by the following formula

Descriptions

Q = Flow rate in Scm/h

Pe = Absolute Upstream Pressure in bar (abs)
Pa = Absolute Downstream Pressure in bar (abs)

A. When the Cg and KG values of the regulator are known, as well as Pe and Pa, the flow rate can be
calculate as follows:

A-1 In non-critical conditions: (Pe < 2 x Pa)

Pe - Pa
Q = 0,52 x Cg x Pe x sen(K1 x ) Q = KG x Pa x (Pe - Pa)
Pe

A-2 In critical conditions: (Pe ≥ 2 x Pa)

Q= KG x Pe
2
In order to limit the noise emission
Q = 0,52 x Cg x Pe it is recommended not toexceed a
gas velocity of 150 m/s at the
regulator outlet flanged.

OPERATION OF THE REGULATOR F SERIE B
1. Check pressure gauge, that inlet pressure should be suitable for
the gas system.
2. Check the filter cartridge, cartridges must be clean and
undeformed.
3. Check if the manual relief valve is in the closed position.
4. Open inlet main valve slowly. C
5. Check outlet pressure gauge,

if the gas pressure is not at the desired level;

‘A’ Turn the cap and remove. Outlet pressure can be adjusted by
appropriately turning the internal adjustment ring nut ‘B’ clockwise to
increase it and counterclockwise to decrease it with tube Spanner
24mm. For outlet pressures outside the specified range, ‘C’ spring
change will be required. Place ‘A’ aluminum cap back onto the
regulator top, make sure to put the ‘D’ O-ring.

4. Turning counter-clockwise: reduction in the upper shut down
pressure.

Shut-off setting in case of overpressure;

1. ‘E’ Turn the cap and remove.
2. Turn the internal adjusting screw ‘D’ using a tube spanner 17mm. A
3. Turning clockwise: increase in the lower shut down pressure.
4. Turning counter-clockwise: reduction in the lower shut down
