 WARNING

Failure to follow these instructions or 

to properly install and maintain this 

equipment could result in an explosion, 

fire and/or chemical contamination 

causing property damage and personal 

injury or death.
Emerson temperature pilot must be 

installed, operated and maintained 

in accordance with federal, state and 

local codes, rules and regulations 

and Emerson Process Management 

Regulator Technologies, Inc. 

(Emerson) instructions.
If the temperature pilot vents gas or a 

leak develops in the system, service 

to the unit may be required. Failure 

to correct trouble could result in a 

hazardous condition.
Installation, operation and maintenance 

procedures performed by unqualified 

personnel may result in improper 

adjustment and unsafe operation. Either 

condition may result in equipment 

damage or personal injury. Only a 

qualified person shall install or service

Introduction

Scope of the Manual

This manual provides instructions for installation, 

maintenance and parts information for the Types T124 

and T134 temperature pilot.

Product Description

The steam pressure reducing valve and temperature 

regulator in a single pilot-operated valve is a 

combination of Type T124 or T134 Pilot and a Type 

E or C Main Valve. Steam pressure is modulated 

in proportion to temperature and load variations. 

Pressure control provides fast, accurate adjustment of 

heat transfer rate to demand requirements.
This pilot is primarily intended for use on 

instantaneous heaters. By combining both temperature 

and pressure control in one pilot, unusually close 

regulation of temperature is achieved through the 

anticipation of fast load changes. An additional benefit 

of this pilot is that pressure reduction and temperature 

control can be provided with a single regulator. For 

pressures not to exceed 20 psi / 1.38 bar, Type T134 

should be used. For pressures between 20 and 

125 psi / 1.38 and 8.62 bar, Type T124 should 

be used.
