Wilkerson R08 - Manuel

INSTALLATION
1.Refer to the above WARNING before installing regulator.
2.Make sure that system piping and regulator are the same pipe size. Avoid
using fittings, couplings, etc. that restrict airflow.
3.Install unit as near as possible to regulated air application.
4.Position unit so air flows in direction indicated by arrow on the top or
bottom of regulator body.
5.Regulator may be installed with adjusting knob located in the up or down
position only.
6.Panel mount regulators require a 1-1/4" (31,7 mm) diameter hole and are
mountable on panels up to 1/8" (3,2 mm) thick. To panel mount regulator
or install using L-Type (wall mount) bracket, snap off adjusting knob by
rotating the panel nut counterclockwise allowing the mechanical
advantage of the screw thread to lift the knob off. Fit bonnet threads into
panel or bracket hole. Replace panel nut and tighten. Replace adjusting
knob by snapping back onto regulator bonnet.
OPERATION
1.NOTE: Maximum pressure rating is 300 psig (21 bar). Temperature
range is 32°F to 150°F (0°C to 65,6°C).
2.To adjust regulator pull up on adjusting knob.
3.Before turning on supply air pressure, turn the adjusting knob
counterclockwise until there is no load on the regulating main spring.
4.To set the downstream pressure turn on the supply air pressure and then
turn the adjusting knob clockwise until the desired secondary pressure is
reached. Push the adjusting knob down to lock knob in place.
5.When making a change in pressure setting, always approach the desired
pressure from a lower pressure. When reducing from a higher to a lower
setting first reduce to some pressure point less than that desired and
then increase to the desired pressure.
MAINTENANCE
1.Given normal operating conditions this unit will be trouble-free. For long
service life, occasionally disassemble and clean body, diaphragm,valve
and valve seat. Service unit at least every six months.
2.TO REPLACE OR SERVICE VALVE ASSEMBLY:
a. Depressurize unit.
b. Turn adjusting knob counterclockwise to relieve compression on spring.
c. Insert flat head screw driver into bottom plug slot and slowly rotate
counterclockwise.
d. Remove bottom plug and bottom valve spring. Valve assembly can
now be removed for cleaning or replacement. When replacing valve
assembly lightly lubricate valve O-ring with teflon based grease.
e. Reinsert valve assembly and bottom spring. Align bottom plug so that
tabs match body slots and arrow points in the direction of air flow.
f. Before returning to service, insure that all seals have been reinstalled
or replaced.
g. Insert flat head screwdriver into bottom plug slot, lightly press downward
and slowly rotate clockwise to securely lock bottom plug in place.
3.TO REPLACE OR SERVICE DIAPHRAGM ASSEMBLY:
a. Depressurize unit.
b. Turn adjusting knob counterclockwise to relieve compression on spring.
c. Remove bonnet from body by turning counterclockwise.
d. Remove main spring.
e. Remove diaphragm assembly to clean or replace.
f. Reinstall diaphragm assembly with spring rest in the up position.
g. Place main spring on spring rest.
h. Align bonnet assembly into body. Turn bonnet clockwise and tighten to
5 lb/ft (6-8 N-m).
i. Slowly pressurize unit to assume proper seating of all components.
4.IF UNIT WILL NOT REGULATE TO DESIRED PRESSURE OR IF
DOWNSTREAM PRESSURE BECOMES EXCESSIVE, disassemble, clean
and check valve O-ring, valve stem and valve seat for wear or damage.
Replace worn or damaged parts with original manufacturer’s service parts.
