An introduction to some of the options of pressure reduction and safety protection equipment in the control of gas supply.
There are many combinations of regulators and associated safety protection
equipment used throughout the world - and no one type suits all applications.
The Type 1098-63EGR backpressure regulator provides fast, accurate and reliable pressure control for gas leg backpressure applications. A simple and durable design is utilized to withstand dirt and debris common in many separator applications without sticking and without compromising shut-off performance. The primary application for this regulator is backpressure control on the gas leg of three phase separators.
Fisher Type 63EG pilot-operated pressure relief valves may be used for both liquid and gas service.Type 63EG is also suitable for throttling backpressure or bypass applications. The main valves in both constructions use quick-change trim package for fast maintenance. For remote monitoring, a Position Monitor Bracket (PMB) is available for the Type 63EG to mount the 4300 Series Wireless Position Monitors to the travel indicator.
Advantages
• In line maintenance
• ANSI/FCI 70-3-2004 Class VI Shutoff
• Large Flow
• Fast Response
Features
• Quiet Operation—The Whisper Trim™ cage option can reduce noise from high-velocity gas by as much as 10 decibels. Whisper Trim equipped regulators are especially engineered for high-pressure applications where sonic gas velocities are often encountered at relief valve outlets.
•Tight Shutoff—A knife-edged metal plug and soft seat provide bubble tight shutoff.
•Easy In-Line Maintenance—Top entry design enables easier maintenance. Trim parts can be inspected, cleaned and replaced without removing the body from pipeline.
•Low Buildup—6358 Series relief valve pilots reduce the buildup required to protect system from overpressure.
•Full Usable Capacity—Fisher brand products are laboratory tested. 100% of the published flow capacity can be used with confidence.
•Travel Indicator—Simplifies in-service inspection and system troubleshooting
•Stable Startup—The unique hollow valve stem in the pilot provides quick pressure registration on top of the main valve plug preventing main valve unseating during normal system startup.
