The 14 Series Manifold Regulator allows several regulators to be chained together while maintaining a constant primary pressure to each regulator. This regulator features a dual spring design which covers any possible outlet setting without the need to indicate a specific spring, eliminating confusing options and part numbers. The regulator uses the inner spring for more precise, lower pressures, and the outer spring for middle to high pressures. As the smaller, inner spring is compressed, the larger, outer spring takes over for higher pressures. Regulators consist of a piston which floats between the main springs (top) and a valve stem (bottom). By turning the adjustment knob clockwise, the main spring is forced onto the piston which, in turn, is pressed onto the valve stem. When the spring force becomes greater than the force of the air pressure in the control chamber below the piston, the valve is forced down and flow begins. As flow continues, the pressure begins to build and air, via the aspirator tube, fills the control chamber. When the underside piston force is greater than the main spring force, the piston is forced upward, causing the main valve to close. The cycle continues in a balanced process of reducing or increasing flow based upon the downstream pressure.
