1. See Table 1 for main valve structural design ratings and Table 3 for pilot ratings.
2. The red, black, purple, red stripe and black with white stripe springs are only recommended for applications where the maximum inlet pressure can exceed 500 psig / 34.5 bar.
3. For differential pressures above 400 psid / 27.6 bar d diaphragm temperatures are limited to 150°F / 66°C.
4. These are recommendations that provide the best regulator performance for a typical application. Please contact your local Sales Ofce for further information if a deviation from the
standard recommendations is required.
