Type 75A Water Pressure Regulator R

October 1990

Form 511

Application The Type 75A is designed to reduce domestic or industrial water pressures to a constant pressure, thus protecting plumbing fixtures and meters from high pressure surges.

As shown in Figure 1, it is self-contained, requiring no external control line for operation.

Installation Check the unit for shipment damage. Clean all foreign material from the pipelines and regulator interior. Install the Type 75A in a horizontal line with the spring case above or below the line, and with flow through the regulator as indicated by the arrow cast on the body. Coat the male threads with pipe compound and draw up the connections tightly but not severly. If a snap-acting valve (solenoid valve) is used in the system, the snap-acting valve should be installed upstream of the Type 75A. The Type 75A may be damaged by high shut-off pressure if a snap-acting valve is installed downstream.

Figure 1. Type 75A Water Pressure Regulator

One spring for each size regulator allows operation over an outlet pressure range of 20 to 80 psi (1.37 to 5.52 bar).

Maximum inlet pressure is 200 psi (13.79 bar). Minimum operating differential pressure is 5 psi (0.34 bar).

Maintenance

To change the reduced pressure, loosen the adjusting screw locknut (key 9) and turn the adjusting screw (key 8) into the spring case to increase the reduced pressure, or out of the case to decrease it. Retighten the locknut.

To replace the valve disk (key 13), unscrew the guide plug (key 3) from the body. The valve disk holder (key 5) may now be unscrewed from the yoke (key 4). Be careful not to twist and rupture the diaphragm (key 12).

Type 75A Note A piece of hex bar stock can be drilled out and slipped over the disk holder shaft to fit inside the holder. This simplifies removal of the holder from the yoke.

Use the following sizes of hex bar: 1/2-inch body - 7/8-inch hex; 3/4-inch body - 1-inch hex; 1 or 1-1/2-inch body - 1-1/4-inch hex; 2-inch body - 2-inch hex; 2-1/2-inch body 2-1/2-inch hex.

To replace valve disk, unscrew the disk retaining screw (key 16), remove old disk (key 13), apply gasket sealer to new disk and install.

To replace the diaphragm, first remove tension of the regulator spring (key 11) by turning out the adjusting screw (key 8). Remove the bolting that holds the spring case (key 2) to the body and lift off the casing and regulator spring. Unscrew the diaphragm nut (key 7) and diaphragm head (key 6). Replace the diaphragm.
