Capacity Data 1. If flow is critical (absolute outlet pressure is equal to or

less than one-half the absolute inlet pressure), use the
equation:

Flow capacities are given in tables 5 and 6 in standard cu-
bic feet per hour of 0.6 specific gravity gas. To determine
the equivalent flow rate for other gases, multiply the table
value by the appropriate factor: Air—0.775; nitro-
gen—0.789; propane—0.628; butane—0.548.
To determine the wide-open capacity of these regulators
with the flow coefficients (Cg) given in the Specifications
table, use the appropriate procedure below.
Flow = (Absolute Inlet Pressure) (Cg) (1.29)
The flow determined will be in standard cubic feet per hour
of 0.6 specific gravity gas.
2. If flow is less than critical (absolute outlet pressure is
greater than one-half the absolute inlet pressure), use the
Fisher sizing slide rule or the sizing nomographs in Fisher
Catalog 10.

Type 631 Operation As downstream demand increases, the downstream pres-

Type 631 pressure-loaded regulators feature downstream
bleed of loading pressure and spring-close action with
complete loss of loading pressure as described below.
Refer to the operational schematic in figure 4. In operation,
loading pressure is supplied to the top of the regulator
diaphragm and bleeds downstream through the bleed re-
striction. Since the bleed restriction is much smaller than
the loading regulator orifice, loading pressure can be sup-
plied faster than the bleed restriction vents the pressure to
downstream.
sure registered on the bottom of the regulator diaphragm
decreases. When spring force and the force of the de-
creasing downstream pressure is overcome by the force of
the loading pressure, the diaphragm strokes to move the
valve disk away from the regulator orifice and increase gas
flow to the downstream system.
As downstream demand decreases, the downstream
pressure registered on the bottom of the regulator dia-
phragm increases. This increasing pressure opposes the
force of the loading pressure and allows the spring to
stroke the diaphragm. As the diaphragm strokes, the valve

disk moves toward the regulator orifice and decreases gas

flow to the downstream system. Excess loading pressure
bleeds downstream through the bleed restriction.

As shown in figure 4, the force of the spring tends to close

the valve disk. Therefore, if loading pressure is discontin-
ued, the regulator will stroke closed.

Installation
These regulators may be installed in any position. A remote
vent line may be required on some installations. All remote
vent openings, vent openings in the regulator, and vent
openings in the loading pressure regulator must be pro-
tected against the entrance of rain, snow, debris, or any
other foreign material that may plug the opening.

Direction of flow through the regulator body must be in the

direction indicated by the flow direction arrow found on the
regulator.
