A pressure regulator, said pressure regulator comprising a housing containing a channel arranged to communicate a fluid from a fluid inlet to a fluid outlet, said channel comprising a valve seat housing, a valve seat and closure member with said closure member operable with the valve seat and valve seat housing to control flow through the channel; wherein the housing comprises a resilient diaphragm in fluid communication with the fluid and in physical communication with the closure member such that the diaphragm is operable to deform in response to a change in pressure of the fluid and such that deformation of the diaphragm causes the closure member to change position, and; wherein the section of the diaphragm not in fluid communication with the channel, is in fluid communication with the exterior of the regulator via a vent aperture and; wherein the closure member comprises an upstream valve element and downstream valve element, wherein the downstream valve element is a ridge operable with an aperture in the valve seat housing to at least partially control fluid flow, wherein said ridge of the closure member is partially or fully inside said aperture in the valve seat housing when the upstream valve element of the closure member is at or between the fully open position and a predetermined partially open position with the valve seat, to provide a restriction to fluid flow but not to fully obstruct flow.

A double port regulator assembly includes a first fluid port and a second fluid port. A fixed valve seat assembly is disposed proximate the first fluid port and a floating valve seat assembly is disposed proximate the second fluid port. A first valve plug cooperates with the fixed valve seat assembly to open and close the first fluid port and a second valve lug cooperates with the floating valve seat assembly to open and close the second fluid port. The floating valve seat assembly includes a floating valve seat that is movable with respect to the fixed valve seat.

A pressure regulating device including a valve body, an actuator assembly coupled to the valve body and including a diaphragm, a valve seat disposed in the valve body, a control assembly operatively connected to the diaphragm to move responsive to movement of the diaphragm, and a travel stop. The control assembly includes a control element that is movable, relative to the valve seat, between an open position, wherein the control element is spaced from the valve seat, and a closed position, wherein the control element sealingly engages the valve seat. The travel stop is configured to engage the control element to stop movement of the control element upon reaching the open position. The travel stop is adjustable to change the open position of the control element, such that a wide open flow capacity of the pressure regulating device can be adjusted.

A centerbody assembly for a pressure regulator includes: a centerbody having a process surface, at least one outlet orifice disposed in the centerbody; an outlet port positioned in fluid communication with the at least one outlet orifice; an inlet port; a valve chamber positioned in the centerbody in fluid communication with the inlet port, the valve chamber including a valve seat positioned in fluid communication with the process surface; a spherical valve element disposed in the valve chamber and moveable between an open position in which it is spaced away from the valve seat, and a closed position in which it seals against the valve seat; a flexible control diaphragm facing the process surface, wherein a perimeter of the control diaphragm is bonded to the centerbody so as to define a seal that blocks the passage of fluid; and wherein the valve element is mechanically interconnected with the control diaphragm.
