General Applications
Best for cold temperatures.
Best for high pressure conditions, i.e.
transmission service or high pressure
industrial service. It is also the best for
abrasive or erosive service applications.
Best for natural gas having aromatic
hydrocarbons. It is also the best for
high temperature applications.

1.
The NPS 6 (DN 150), 17E97 diaphragm will perform in gas temperatures as low as -20°F (-29°C).
2. For differential pressures above 400 psig (27,6 bar) diaphragm temperature is limited to 150°F (66°C).
3. The aromatic hydrocarbon content is based on percent volume.

1. Monitor pilot minimum setpoint was determined with a pressure drop ranging from 50 to 150 psig (3,5 to 10,3 bar). Approximately double the minimum monitor pilot setpoint
if the pressure drop is less than 50 psig (3,5 bar).
2. Should only be used as the intermediate pressure reduction pilot on Type EZR worker/monitor systems.

Type EZR Working Monitor Performance
Maintenance
Regulator parts are subject to normal wear and must
be inspected periodically and replaced as necessary.
Due to the care Regulator Technologies takes in
meeting all manufacturing requirements (heat treating,
dimensional tolerances, etc.), use only replacement
parts manufactured or furnished by Regulator
Technologies. Also, when lubrication is required,
use a good quality lubricant and sparingly coat the
recommended part. The frequency of inspection
and parts replacement depends upon the severity of
service conditions, applicable codes and government
regulations, and company inspection procedures.
Table 12 lists various regulator problems and possible
solutions for them.
Type EZR Main Valve Trim Parts
Instructions are given for complete disassembly and
assembly. The main valve may remain in the pipeline
during maintenance procedures. Key numbers are
referenced in Figures 14 through 18.
cAUTIOn
Avoid personal injury or damage to
property from sudden release of pressure
or uncontrolled gas or other process
fluid. Before starting to disassemble,
carefully release all pressures according
to the Shutdown procedure. Use gauges
to monitor inlet and outlet pressures
while releasing these pressures.
