Valve stroke may be out of adjustment.
Valve plug may not be moving freely.
Inlet pressure may be too low.
If You Experience Insufficient Flow:
Check shutoff valves to be sure they are fully open.
Check pressure on upstream side (install a pressure
gauge on the upstream side).
Blow down strainers.
Clean all traps and be sure they are in good working
order. If the return line from the trap is cool, the steam
coil may be clogged.
If You Experience Overriding:
Usually caused by scale or foreign matter holding the
plug open - inspect and clean or replace.
May be caused by failure of the diaphragm – replace
diaphragm as needed.
May be caused by too high a spring setting – adjust
if necessary.
May be caused by insufficient instrument output pres-
sure.
If You Experience Leakage or Erratic Regulation:
Excessive pressure drop - reduce with pressure regu-
lating valve.
Plug may be binding.
There may be excessive foreign matter in seat.
