Series MPR Miniature Pressure Regulator
Specifications - Installation and Operating Instructions
Bulletin V-MPR
The Series MPR Miniature Pressure Regulators are compact units
that provide low cost, high performance pressure regulation of
compressed air or water. The low torque, non-rising adjustment knob
with locking capability provides easy and precise regulation and
preventsleakage.Thecompactsizeandlightweightconstructionmake
this unit ideal for the OEM market and portable equipment including
adhesive dispensers, printing presses, medical equipment, spray
equipment, analyzers, pumps, compressors, welding machines and
manymore.ModelMPR1isarelievingregulatorandmodelMPR2isa
non-relieving regulator. (The MPR2 is typically used in water
applications). When controlling air, Series MPR should be used in
constantflowordownstreampressurereliefapplications.
INSTALLATION
1. System piping should be the same pipe size as regulator ports.
Locateregulatorascloseaspossibletothedeviceusingregulated
air. If cycling devices and/or lubricators are used in the piping
system, install the regulator upstream of these devices. A filter
installedupstreamoftheregulatorisrecommendedtomaximize
servicelife.
2. The arrow on the regulator body indicates direction of air flow.
Connectpipingtoproperportsusingpipesealantonmalethreads
only.Donotallowsealanttoenter interiorofregulator.TheSeries
MPR canbeinstalledatanyangle.
3. Two1/8˝NPT gaugeportsareprovidedtoallowfortheconnection
ofanoutletpressuregaugeorasadditionaloutletsforregulatedair.
Plug unused gauge ports. Panel-mounted units require a 1 3/16˝
(6.350mm)diameterholewithamaximumpanelthicknessof1/4˝
(4.8mm).
ADJUSTMENT
1.Pulltheknoboutwardtounlockandadjustpressuresetting.Before
turning on system air pressure, turn regulator knobcounter-
clockwisejustuntiltheknobstops.Turnonsystemairpressure.Turn
regulatorknobclockwiseuntiloutletpressurereachesdesiredsetting.
2. When changing pressure setting, always approach the desired
pressure from a lower setting. For example, lowering the outlet
pressurefrom80psito60psiisbestaccomplishedbydroppingthe
outletpressureto50psi,andthenadjustingupto60psi.
3. Pushknobinwardtolockpressuresetting.

MAINTENANCE
WARNING:
Air supply pressure must be shut off before attempting
to install or disassemble regulator for servicing.
1. Ifairsupplyiskeptclean,regulatorshouldprovidelong periodsof
uninterruptedservice.Iferraticperformanceoccurs,itislikelythat
partsintheregulatorneedtobecleanedorreplaced.
2. TO DISASSEMBLE: Reduce pressure in inlet and outlet lines to
zero. Regulator can be serviced without removal from line.
Pullknobouttodisengagelockandturnknobcounter-clockwise
untilitstops.Thiswillremoveanyloadontherangespring.
Unscrewbonnet.Adjustingscrewandnutarenotretained,and
mayfallout.Removerangespringanddiaphragmassembly.
Unscrewsupplyseat(hexsocketsizeis9/16˝),andremovepintle
andpintlespring.
