on the upper side of the di a phragm closes
the main valve’s plug enough to re store the
down stream (P

) pressure to the setpoint.
7. Pressure setpoint is adjusted by changing
the com pres sion of the pilot’s range spring
by turning the adjusting screw either clockwise
(CW) or counter-clock wise (CCW). Turning the
adjusting screw clockwise (CW) will in crease
the downstream (P
2
) pressure. Turn ing the
adjusting screw counter-clockwise (CCW) will
decrease the down stream (P
2
) pressure.

IV. START-UP
A. General
1. Start with the block valves closed.
2. Ensure that the needle valve(s) on the sens ing
line is opened and downstream (P
2
) pres sure
is in di cat ing on pressure gauge.
3. Relax the pilot valve range spring by turning
the adjusting screw counter clockwise (CCW)
(viewed from above) a minimum of three (3)
full revolutions. This reduces the outlet (down-
stream) pressure setpoint.
For POSR-1-20 use manual loading valve to
set minimum loading pressure.
senses the reduced pressure and the pilot
valve’s plug increases its opening, elevating
the load ing pressure on the upper side of the
main valve’s diaphragm.The combined actions
increase fl ow enough to restore the down-
stream (P
2
) pressure to the setpoint.
6. If the downstream (P
2
) pressure rises above the
setpoint, the force developed by the in creased
pressure on the underside of the diaphragm
instantly moves it upward and partially closes
the main valve’s plug. Si mul ta neous ly, the
pilot valve’s plug partially clos es and al lows

4. Slowly open the bypass valve to preheat the
system piping and to allow slow ex pan sion
of the piping. Assure proper steam trap op-
er a tion. Closely monitor outlet (down stream)
pressure via gauge to assure not over-pres sur-
iz ing. NOTE: If no bypass valve is in stalled,
extra caution should be used in start ing up a
cold system; i.e. do ev ery thing slowly.
5. Slowly open the outlet (downstream) block
valve until fully open. Slightly close the by pass
valve at same time.
CAUTION
Do not walk away and leave a bypassed reg u la tor unat-
tended when on manual bypass!
7. Continue to alternate slow ly closing the
bypass valve and then slowly opening the inlet
(upstream) block valve, es pe cial ly when the
down stream piping sys tem isn’t pressurized.If
the outlet (downstream) pressure exceeds the
desired pressure, close the bypass valve un-
til fully closed. If outlet pres sure still re mains
above desired level, rotate pilot’s ad just ing
screw CCW (viewed from above) in 1/2
rev o lu tion in cre ments until out let pres sure
reach es de sired level. If outlet pres sure is
below de sired level, ro tate pilot’s ad just ing
screw CW (viewed from above) until de sired
level is reached.
For POSR-1-20 adjust manual loading valve
to either increase or decrease loading pres-
sure until desired set point is reached. Do not
exceed limits.
CAUTION
Do not exceed Maximum Loading Pressure limits for P

set point.
