10. Two-stage Pressure Reduction
Two-stage pressure reduction should be performed whenever the pressure
cannot be reduced to the desired level with a COS due to operating range
limitations, such as when the reduction ratio is greater than 10:1.
11. Accessories
Always install a shut-off valve, pressure gauge and bypass line at both inlet and
outlet.
Ball valves, which will not retain condensate, are recommended for inlet and outlet
shut-off valves. The bypass pipe should be at least
1
/
2
of the size of the inlet
(primary side) pipe.
