Installation
Fluid pressure regulators are used for accurate, posi- tive control of the fluid pressure to spray guns, dis- pensing valves or atomizing heads.
Regulators installed at circulating line
Installing the Fluid Regulator
1.Remove the temporary plumbing and install one regulator for each spray gun. A mounting stud, washers, and locknut are provided for mounting the regulator either from the bottom or side.
2.Put sealer on threaded connections, except on swivel unions as it interferes with the swivel action.
Before Installing the Fluid Regulator
1.Determine placement of the fluid regulator in system.
2.Install a ball valve for inlet and outlet of the regula- tor.
3.Install temporary plumbing between the ball valves.
4.Thoroughly flush the system to remove metal chips and other contaminants and to check for leaks.
3.Connect the fluid supply line to the 3/8 npt(f) inlet of the fluid regulator. Connect the fluid line be- tween the gun and the regulator’s 1/4 npt(f) outlet of choice. MAKE SURE that the direction of fluid flow agrees with the IN and OUT markings on the regulator body.
4.Flush and test the entire system.
