Principle of Operation
Type CSB400 Base Regulator Operation
Refer to Figure 4. When downstream demand
decreases, the pressure under the regulator 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
orice and reduces gas ow. If demand downstream
increases, pressure under the regulator diaphragm
decreases. Spring force pushes the pusher post
assembly downward, the valve disk moves away from
the orice, and the gas ow increases downstream
as the regulator opens in response to the decreased
pressure underneath the regulator diaphragm.
Type numbers with a “T”, for example, Type CSB400IT,
provide a token or low-capacity relief. The Token relief
provides relief from minor overpressure caused by nicks
or dents on the orice or by thermal expansion of gas in
the downstream line. Token relief also provides a token or
signal, in the form of odor, that an overpressure situation
is occurring.
Additional overpressure protection options include
Types CSB403 and CSB423, which offer True-Monitor™
protection provided by an integral monitor module installed
on the inlet side of the valve body. This Integral True-Monitor
assumes control of the pressure to the downstream
system should the primary regulator fail to regulate. The
Types CSB404, CSB424 and CSB454 are examples of
CSB400 Series congurations that offer a slam-shut module
that shuts off the ow of gas to the downstream system in
the event of outlet pressure rising above or falling below the
predened levels due to a failure.
Optional token relief is available, which acts as a low-
capacity internal relief valve to relieve minor overpressure
situations due to nicks or other minor damage to the
orice or disk, or due to thermal expansion of the
downstream system.
Internal, external or dual outlet pressure registration is
available. Constructions with dual or external registration
require an external control line / sense line. For quick
changing loads, dual sense is recommended as it
provides the quickest response time.
