  Set regulator outlet pressure to minimum:

  Rotate the knob of the 

pressure reducing regulator in the counterclockwise direction until the spring 
force of the diaphragm is relieved.  Insure that the shut-off valve(s) is in the 
closed position.

 

 

 

Be sure that the molstic-S Supply Assembly or molstic-S shut-off 
valve(s) is closed before connecting the quick connector stem to the 

quick connector body (located on the regulator’s inlet).

 

 

  Connect the gas supply:

  Connect the gas supply to the quick connector 

stem (1/4 in. or 1/2 in. tube).  The gas supply pressure should not exceed  
1.7 MPa (250 psig).  Insert the stem into the quick connect body. 

2.4.1.2

 

MOLSTIC-S USE WITH REGULATORS NOT SUPPLIED 

BY DHI 

The inlet gas supply to the molstic-S must be suitably regulated prior to 
connection to the inlet of the molbloc-S plumbing.  In addition, a shut-off valve 
should be used downstream of the regulator in order to allow for system leak 
testing.  The pressure reducing regulators supplied by 

DHI

 are selected for the 

following characteristics: 

• High 

quality 

• 

High sensitivity and stability 

• 

Outlet (control) pressure range: 0 to 100 psig 

• 

Non-venting – does not relieve control pressure outside of plumbing 

• 

Low droop (change in control pressure with change in flow rate) 

• 

Low inlet pressure effect (change in control for a given change in supply pressure) 

• 

Flow capacity – capability to flow to maximum required flow rate 

  Set regulator outlet pressure to minimum:

 Rotate the knob of the user 

supplied pressure reducing regulator in the counterclockwise direction until 
the spring force of the diaphragm is relieved.  Insure that the shut-off valve(s) 
is in the closed position.

 

  Connect the gas supply: 

Connect the gas supply to the pressure regulator’s 

inlet port using suitable means and compatible fittings.  The gas supply 
pressure should not exceed the regulator’s maximum operating pressure.

 

2.4.2

 

INLET CONNECTION - MOLSTIC-S USE WITH DUT 
UPSTREAM 

 

 

DUTs that have built in flow control capability, such as MFCs, (and are to be tested in 
flow control mode) must be tested in the upstream location.  Install this type of DUT 
upstream of the molbloc-S only.
