1/4" and 3/8" B12 Filter / Regulator Series, and T12 Precision Filter Regulator
5. To decrease regulated pressure settings, always reset from a pressure
lower than the final setting required. Example, lowering the secondary
pressure from 550 to 410 kPa (80 to 60 psig) is best accomplished by
dropping the secondary pressure to 350 kPa (50 psig), then adjusting
upward to 410 kPa (60 psig).
6. When desired secondary pressure settings have been reached, push the
knob down to lock this pressure setting.

Service
Caution: Disconnect or shut off air supply and exhaust the primary
!
and secondary pressures before servicing unit. Turning the
adjusting knob counterclockwise does not vent downstream
pressure on non-relieving regulators. Downstream pressure must
be vented before servicing regulator.
Note: Grease packets are supplied with kits for lubrication of seals. Use
only mineral based grease or oils. Do not use synthetic oils such
as esters. Do not use silicones.
Note: After servicing unit, turn on air supply and adjust regulator to the
desired downstream pressure. Check unit for leaks. If leakage
occurs, do not operate - conduct repairs and retest.
Servicing Filter Element -
1. Unscrew the bottom threaded collar and remove bowl.
2. Unscrew the baffle and then remove element.
3. Clean all internal parts and bowl before reassembling. See polycarbonate
bowl cleaning section. IMPORTANT: The Filter / Regulator will not operate
properly if the deflector is not installed properly. The deflector must be
installed between the filter holder and the filter body.
4. Install new element.
5. Attach baffle and finger tighten firmly.
6. Replace bowl seal. Lightly lubricate new seal to assist with retaining it in
position.
7. Install bowl into body and tighten collar; hand tight, plus 1/4 turn.
Servicing Regulator -
1. Disengage the adjusting knob by pulling upward. Turn adjusting knob
counterclockwise until the compression is released from the pressure
control spring.
2. Remove the bonnet and bowl assemblies by unscrewing the two
threaded collars.
3. Remove diaphragm assembly from bonnet assembly.
4. Remove filter stem, filter element, valve assembly, and valve return spring.
5. Clean and carefully inspect parts for wear or damage. If replacement is
necessary, use parts from service kits. Clean bowl. See polycarbonate
bowl cleaning section.
6. Lubricate o-ring and vee packing seals with grease found in service kits.
7. Install valve return spring, valve assembly, (seat) insert and its o-rings,
and filter stem. IMPORTANT: The Filter / Regulator will not operate
properly if the defector is not installed properly. The deflector must be
installed between the filter holder and filter body.
8. Install filter element and firmly tighten baffle onto the filter holder.
9. Install diaphragm assembly into bonnet assembly. Assemble bonnet
assembly to body and tighten threaded collar hand tight, plus 1/4 turn.
10. Install bowl into body and tighten collar; hand tight, plus 1/4 turn.
