The pilot-operated Type EZHSO (Spring-to-
Open version) will fail in open position in
case of main valve diaphragm failure or lack
of pressure supply to the pilot (see Table 4
for Failure Mode Analysis).
Type EZHSO uses inlet pressure as the operating
medium, which is reduced through pilot operation to load
the actuator diaphragm (lower chamber). Pilot feeding
pressure (P
up) is provided to the regulator actuator
diaphragm (upper chamber). This pressure opposes the
main spring force that tends to open the regulator and
the motorization pressure (P
m). Outlet or downstream
pressure (P
d) opposes the pilot control spring.

PRX Series pilot is supplied with pressure coming from
pre-regulator Type SA/2, which reduces inlet pressure
(P
u) to the value of outlet pressure (Pd) plus approximately
3 bar.
When outlet pressure drops below the setting of the
pilot control spring, pilot control spring force on the pilot
diaphragm opens the pilot valve plug, providing additional
motorization pressure (P
m) to the actuator diaphragm.
This diaphragm motorization pressure opens the main
valve plug, supplying the required ow to the downstream
system. Any excess motorization pressure on the actuator
diaphragm escapes downstream through the bleed
restriction in the pilot.
