Bulletin 71.1:CS400 Principle of Operation Type CS400 Base Regulator Operation Refer to Figures 4 and 5. When downstream demand decreases, the pressure under the diaphragm increases. This pressure overcomes the regulator setting (which is set by the regulator control spring). Through the action of the pusher post assembly, lever, and valve stem, the valve disk moves closer to the orifice and reduces gas flow. If demand downstream increases, pressure under the diaphragm decreases. Spring force pushes the pusher post assembly downward, the valve disk moves away from the orifice, and the gas...

Bulletin 71.1:CS400 Installation Internal Relief “R” The CS400 Series regulators may be installed in any position. However, the spring case vent should be pointed downward. If gas escaping through the CS400 Series internal relief valve could constitute a hazard, the spring case vent must be piped to a location where escaping gas will not be hazardous. If the vented gas will be piped to another location, use obstruction-free tubing or piping at least equal in size to the vent, and the end of the vent pipe must be protected from anything that might clog it. Regulators with External...

Bulletin 71.1:CS400 Refer to Figures 6 and 7. If the primary regulator ceases to control downstream pressure, outlet pressure will rise underneath the diaphragm of the integral monitor, which will assume control of the downstream pressure. Table 5 shows a comparison between the integral True-MonitorTM protection and the protection offered by an backup orifice device, which seals on a secondary seating surface should the primary orifice seating surface or disk become damaged. scfh (60°F and 14.7 psia) and Nm³/h (0°C and 1.01325 bar) of 0.6 specific gravity natural gas.
