Two-stage Pressure Reduction
Two-stage pressure reduction should be performed whenever the pressure
cannot be reduced to the desired level with a single pressure-reducing valve due
to operating range limitations, such as when the reduction ratio is greater than
10:1.
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 one half the size of the
inlet (primary side) pipe.
A strainer should always be installed ahead of the S-COSR. S-COS has a built-in
strainer, however in case an external strainer is installed, it should be installed
ahead of COSPECT and the strainer should be installed horizontally with the
basket at the 3 or 9 o’clock position in order to prevent condensate accumulation.
