The 67D Series direct-operated regulators are typically 
used to provide constantly controlled, reduced pressures.  
They are suitable for most air or gas applications.  
  •  The Types 67D and 67DS are the standard      
   instrument supply regulators without a lter or 
  internal relief. 
  •  The Types 67DF and 67DFS are equipped with a  
     lter for removing particles from the supply gas. 
  •  The Types 67DR and 67DSR have an internal  
  relief valve with a soft seat for reliable shutoff with  
  no discernible leakage.
  •  The Types 67DFR and 67DFSR have a lter and  
  internal relief valve with a soft seat for reliable  
     shutoff with no discernible leakage.  
Downstream pressure is registered internally on the 
lower side of the diaphragm.  When the downstream 
pressure is at or above the set pressure, the valve plug 
is held against the orice and there is no ow through 
the regulator.  When demand increases, downstream 
pressure drops slightly allowing the spring to extend, 
moving the stem down and the valve plug away from 
the orice.  This allows ow through the regulator.
If for some reason, outside of normal operating 
conditions, the downstream pressure exceeds the 
setpoint of the regulator, the force created by the 
downstream pressure will lift the diaphragm until the 
diaphragm is lifted off the relief seat.  This allows ow 
through the token relief.  The relief valve on the  
Type 67DR, 67DSR, 67DFR, or 67DFSR is an 
elastomer plug that prevents leakage of air from the 
downstream to atmosphere during normal operation, 
thereby conserving plant air.
Smart Bleed™ Airset
In some cases, it is desired to exhaust downstream 
pressure if inlet pressure is lost or drops below the 
setpoint of the regulator.  For example, if the regulator 
is installed on equipment that at times has no ow 
demand but is expected to backow on loss of inlet 
pressure.  The Type 67DFR or 67DFSR can be 
ordered with the Smart Bleed
TM
 option which includes 
an internal check valve for this application.  During 
operation, if inlet pressure is lost, or decreases below 
the setpoint of the regulator, the downstream pressure 
will back ow upstream through the regulator and 
check valve.  This option eliminates the need for a 
xed bleed downstream of the regulator, thereby 
conserving plant air.
