Type 4708 Supply Pressure Regulator

1 Type 478 Pressure Regulator Application pressure regulator used to provide pneumatic measuring and control equipment with a constant air supply Set point ranges. to.6 bar ( to 4 psi) or. to 6 bar (8 to 9 psi) The supply pressure regulator reduces and controls the maximum pressure of bar (8 psi) in a compressed air network to the pressure adjusted at the set point adjuster. The regulators have a filter which can be vented: Type including filter with μm All other Type 478 including filter with μm or Special version with μm Special features Air blow off and low air consumption Almost independent of upstream pressure Any mounting position (except version with filter receptacle) Suitable for pipe and panel mounting as well as for attachment to various positioners and actuators Optionally with pressure gauge with CrNiMo steel housing and brass measuring element or pressure gauge completely made of CrNiMo steel (these regulator versions are completely free of any copper alloy) Threaded ends G according to DIN ISO 8/ or with NPT tapered pipe thread Versions pressure regulators with continuously adjustable set point range from. to 6 bar (8 to 9 psi) Type 478- to -7 (Figs., ) Regulators with optional set point range from. to.6 bar ( to psi).

2 Principle of operation (Fig. 4) The Type 478 Pressure Regulator operates according to the force-balance principle. By turning the set point screw (7), the tension of the spring (6) is changed and the output pressure is adjusted accordingly. The set point ranges from. to.6 bar or from. to 6 bar are obtained by using two different springs. The supply pressure regulator contains a filter cartridge (). To drain the condensate, open the screw plug () by half a turn. When mounting the regulator, make sure the screw plug is in a horizontal or suspended position. For versions with separate filter receptacle and condensate drainage, the regulator must be installed with the receptacle suspended. pressure regulators combined with pneumatic or electropneumatic devices (Fig. 7 onwards) Various adapter plates allow the supply pressure regulator to be attached to the various devices. Note! If the regulator is connected to supply networks carrying air that contains dust, oil or condensate, we recommend to use SAMSOMATIC service units for compressed air treatment Fig. 4 Sectional view of Type 478 Pressure Regulator Installation To avoid the formation of excessive condensate, make sure the supply pressure regulator is installed as closely as possible to the compressor or the compressed air tank. The regulator is either mounted directly in the pipeline or into the appropriate panel cut-out. In addition, it may be attached directly to the positioner or the pneumatic actuator. Depending on the version used, the air connections are fitted with either G¼or¼-8 NPT threads (G ½ or ½-8 NPT threads for Type 478-4). Manual/automatic switchover The output of a positioner is routed to the actuator over a manual/automatic switchover (Fig. 6). In automatic mode, the positioner output is used and in manual mode, the output pressure of the supply pressure regulator is routed directly to the actuator. This feature provides a manual bypass for the positioner. The manual/automatic switchover is suitable for mounting on Types 76x, 78x and 7x Positioners or for mounting on an adapter plate connected up to the actuator. Type 478- (Fig. 6) or Type can be connected to the manual/automatic switchover. All other supply pressure regulators are connected over piping.

The filter housing can be rotated 6 to ensure that the filter and condensate drainage always face downwards. Legends for Figs. 4 and Body. Seat. Plug. Connecting bore Diaphragm plate.
