Setting the Pressure Sustaining Control

Step 1

Setting the Relief/Sustaining Control requires lowering the 

upstream pressure to the desired minimum sustained pressure.

Step 2

Leave the downstream isolation valve full open and close the 

upstream isolation valve until the inlet pressure drops to the 

desired setting.

Step 3

Adjust the Relief/Sustaining Control screw IN, clockwise, until the 

inlet pressure begins to increase, or OUT, counterclockwise, to 

decrease, stopping at the desired pressure (See Figure 4).

Step 4

Allow pressure to stabilize.

Step 5

Fine-tune the relief/sustaining setting as required as detailed in 

Step 3. 

Step 6

Open upstream isolation valve to return to normal operation.

Clockwise to INCREASE 

inlet pressure

Counterclockwise to DECREASE 

inlet pressure
