SECTION I
I. DESCRIPTION AND SCOPE
These regulators are designed for air service only. Maximum allowable inlet pressure is 290 psi. Operating temperatures
are -20
o
to 180
o
F. The 5300P has low capacity internal relief which provides very limited down stream over pressure
protection. Note: Non-relieving version does not provide internal relief. To avoid exceeding outlet pressure limits in ser-
vice, a pressure-relieving or pressure-limiting device should be provided.
SECTION II
II. INSTALLATION
Install the regulator as close as possible to the instrument or tool it is to service. Clean all pipelines to remove dirt and
scale prior to installation. The words "IN" and "OUT" are cast into the body to indicate the direction of ow. For best lter
drainage orient the drain valve so that it is at the lowest point on the drip well housing. The exhaust port should be kept
free and unplugged. Position the regulator so the vent is at the lowest point possible, or provide additional protection
to prevent contaminants from entering the regulator. Rotating the bonnet relative to the body may change the vent hole
orientation. Exhaust may be remotely vented by installing tubing to the 1/8" NPT port. Apply pipe compound or sealing
tape to the male pipe threads prior to installing regulator. Use caution to prevent the sealant from getting inside the
regulator.
SECTION III
III. PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
Prior to turning on supply air, back off adjusting screw until there is no compression of the range spring. After turning
supply pressure on, turn the adjusting screw clockwise to increase outlet pressure. Tighten locknut to maintain desired
pressure setting.
SECTION IV
IV. MAINTENANCE
1. To remove condensate, slowly open drain valve and bleed accumulated liquid.
2. To clean lter element
a. Shut off supply air.
b. Drain condensate.
c. Remove four corner bolts from bottom of unit.
d. Remove dripwell housing and lter.
e. Clean parts and reassemble in reverse order.
