Installation

Warning

Only qualied personnel should

install or service a regulator.

Regulators should be installed,

operated, and maintained in

accordance with international and

applicable codes and regulations,

and Emerson Process Management

Regulator Technologies Inc. (Regulator

Technologies) instructions.

If the regulator vents uid or a leak

develops in the system, it indicates that

service is required. Failure to take the

regulator out of service immediately

may create a hazardous condition.

Personal injury, equipment damage,

or leakage due to escaping uid

or bursting of pressure-containing

parts may result if this regulator is

overpressured or is installed where

service conditions could exceed the

limits given in the Specications

section, or where conditions exceed

any ratings of the adjacent piping or

piping connections.

1. The pressure/temperature limits in this Installation Guide and any applicable

standard or code limitation should not be exceeded.

2. For optimum performance, a pilot supply regulator may be installed in the pilot

supply tubing between the main valve and pilot.

3. This orice size is not available for Types 299HS and 299HSR.

99H Series To avoid such injury or damage, provide pressure-relieving or pressurelimiting devices (as required by the appropriate code, regulation, or standard) to prevent service conditions from exceeding limits. Additionally, physical damage to the regulator could result in personal injury and property damage due to escaping fluid. To avoid such injury and damage, install the regulator in a safe location.

299H Series To adjust the Underpressure Trip Spring: 1. Adjust the underpressure trip spring back to its minimum compression. 2. Backpressure the unit with the desired underpressure trip pressure. 3. Increase the underpressure trip spring compression until the Type VSX-2 trips. Taking Out of Service (Shutdown) ! Warning To avoid personal injury resulting from sudden release of pressure, isolate the regulator from all pressure before attempting disassembly.
