A multi-stage pressure regulation system, device and associated methodology for reducing the pressure of gas passing through a gas sample conditioning system. The device and method allow for automatic and/or manual configuration settings for regulating different types of gas having different profiles while still avoiding dew point dropout thereby ensuring accurate sample analysis at a downstream analyzer. The pressure regulating device includes a housing having a core, a vapor sample input port, a plurality of openings on an upper surface, a plurality of pressure regulating valves configured to reduce the pressure of a vapor sample, and an assembly having a base and substantially central stem orthogonal to the base and extending axially therefrom, the stem being disposed within the core.

A pressure regulator has a housing with an inlet, an outlet and a valve seat. A regulator sleeve is arranged within the housing and defines a flow channel from an upstream end adapted for cooperating with the valve seat towards a downstream end associated with the outlet. A spring biases the regulator sleeve towards the outlet. The downstream end of the flow channel tapers outwardly.

A valve includes a basic body, control spool, sealing ring, and control cover. The control spool is received in the basic body to be movable along a longitudinal axis. The basic body includes a counter-sealing surface, connecting channel, and tank channel having at least one first annular groove surrounding the control spool. The control cover and at least one end face of the control spool facing toward the longitudinal axis delimits, at least in part, a control space. The control cover includes a sealing surface that abuts the counter-sealing surface of the basic body. At least one of the sealing surface and the counter-sealing surface includes a sealing groove that surrounds the control space in ring-like fashion. The sealing ring is received in the sealing groove. The connecting channel opens out into the tank channel and into the sealing groove.

A regulator, e.g., a pressure regulator for supplying a high pressure fuel to an engine, is disclosed. The regulator includes at least a pair of annular bearings composed of a rigid synthetic resin interposed along a length direction of a pressure regulating valve body at a predetermined distance at a position on a valve seat side in an axial direction of a gap formed between the pressure regulating valve body and an inner wall of the passage formed in a body main body.

An integrated pressure regulator is provided with three stages configured to reduce an extreme tank pressure down to a typical working pressure. The regulator is configured to supply a steady working pressure until the tank pressure is reduced to little more than the working pressure itself. Stages of the pressure regulator are integrated into a body and arranged to minimize regulator mass and volume. A thermally-triggered pressure relief device may be included with a triggering time adapted to enhance the safety of smaller cylinders that may be used, e.g., in aerial applications.

An oil pressure supply device supplies, to an oil chamber, an oil pressure generated by suctioning oil from an oil source with an oil pump. The oil pressure supply device includes a first oil passage connected to a suction side of the oil pump; a first check valve provided in the first oil passage and configured to close the first oil passage and prevent oil from moving to the oil source side when the oil pump is stopped; a second oil passage connected to a discharge side of the oil pump; and a second check valve provided in the second oil passage and configured to close the second oil passage and prevent oil from moving to the oil pump side when the oil pump is stopped. When the oil pump is stopped, the second check valve closes the second oil passage earlier than the first check valve closes the first oil passage.

A device for regulating the pressure of a compressed gas, comprising a body with a gas inlet, a gas outlet and a gas passage fluidly interconnecting the inlet and outlet; a mobile element carrying a shutter cooperating with a seat in the gas passage, the shutter and the seat forming a regulating valve; a hand-wheel operatively linked to a spindle rotatably mounted on the body; wherein the spindle is hollow and houses a spigot with a cam, the spigot being linked in rotation with the spindle and cooperating with a counter-cam spigot movable in translation but not in rotation relative to the body, and acting on the mobile element or on a shut-off valve for selectively shutting-off and opening the gas passage.

A pressure regulator including a closure resisting mechanism that increases the total closure resisting force of a closure element to prevent the closure element from moving into a closed position until a predetermined pressure set point is reached. The closure resisting mechanism operates automatically and is spring actuated in response to pressure within a fluid pathway of the regulator. The closure resisting mechanism is disposed external to the fluid pathway so as not to impede fluid flow.

A pressure regulator for use in an elbow connector for use with a sprinkler assembly including a pressure responsive member, movably mounted in the elbow connector and movable from an open position allowing flow of water into the sprinkler assembly and a closed position where the bottom edge of the pressure responsive member blocks the flow of water into the sprinkler assembly. The pressure responsive member is biased in the open position and moves into the closed position when downstream water pressure exceeds a predetermined value.
