Applications include small heaters, humidifiers, various hospital equipment, tire molds, as well as many other general uses. This style of regulator does not require an external sensing line. Set pressure is controlled by turning an adjustment screw with lock nut that increases or decreases spring force above the diaphragm. Several spring ranges are available, depending upon the downstream pressure that needs to be maintained. O-Series contains hardened stainless steel seat and disc for extended service life. Phosphor Bronze Diaphragm specifically designed for Steam service is considered a preferred choice over Stainless Steel diaphragms which are prone to work-hardening and potential cracking. Viton diaphragms are specifically designed for water, air, gases and other liquid service and have a working temperature range up to 300°F.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eControlling Pressure\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe O-Series valve reduces downstream pressure of steam, water, or gas. Downstream pressure is set by turning an adjustment screw that increases or decreases spring force above a diaphragm. The downstream pressure applies an upward force to the diaphragm to compress the adjustment spring. When the system pressure equals the set point, the diaphragm moves upward against the adjustment spring force, closing the valve.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDesign Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eO-Series\u003c\/strong\u003e contains hardened stainless steel seat and disc with a guided stem for extended service life.

The larger size O-valves, which include the 3\/4 -HC thru the 2\" bodies have four distinct pressure range when using the SINGLE spring option and two wider pressure ranges when using the DOUBLE spring option.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe double spring option gives the user added flexibility in downstream pressure adjustment depending on the application.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOther Considerations\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe limitation of the direct-operated type regulator is a variation of up to 10% of initial set pressure depending on changes in flow through the valve. As flow requirements through the valve increase, the outlet set pressure will tend to decrease.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor example; Inlet pressure is 100 PSIG and downstream pressure is adjusted to maintain 50 PSIG while 250 lbs\/hr of steam flows through the valve. If the steam flow rate happens to increase to 500 lbs\/hr, then the outlet pressure would drop to 45 PSIG.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSelection \/ Sizing \/ Capacities\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom the Capacity chart, find the inlet pressure and required regulator outlet pressure. Follow across chart to nearest capacity (steam, air, water) that meets or slightly exceeds demand requirements. Follow vertically up to determine appropriate size. When exact application values are not shown, interpolate between values. Select a model with the spring range that accommodates the required outlet set pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExample:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApplication: 200 lbs\/hr of 100 PSIG Steam reduced to 30 PSIG\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel Code: \u003cstrong\u003eO-12-N-14-B\u003c\/strong\u003e (1\/2\" O-Series, 10-50 PSIG spring range, NPT with Bronze Diaphragm for Steam\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"clear: both;\"\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"tech\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"specs\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"column\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"left\"\u003eModel\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"right\"\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eO-Series\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"left\"\u003eService\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"right\"\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eSteam, Air, Water \u0026amp; Other Liquids\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"left\"\u003eSizes\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"right\"\u003e1\/2\"\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"left\"\u003eConnections\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"right\"\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eNPT\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"left\"\u003eBody Material\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"right\"\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eCast Iron\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"left\"\u003eSeat \u0026amp; Disc\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"right\"\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eHardened 420 Stainless Steel\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"left\"\u003eDiaphragm (For Steam)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"right\"\u003e\u003cdiv\u003ePhosphor Bronze - Steam\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"left\"\u003eDiaphragm (For Liquid or Air)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"right\"\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eViton - Water, Air \u0026amp; Oil (30°F Max)\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"column\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"left\"\u003eMax Inlet Pressure\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"right\"\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e250 PSIG\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"left\"\u003eMin Inlet Pressure\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"right\"\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e15 PSIG\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"left\"\u003eMax Differential Pressure\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"right\"\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e125 PSI\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"left\"\u003eMin Differential Pressure\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"right\"\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e15 PSI\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"left\"\u003eDesign Pressure\/Temperature Rating – PMA\/TMA\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"right\"\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eNPT - 250 PSIG @ 45°F\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"left\"\u003ePart Number\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"right\"\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eO-12-N-14-V\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"clear: both;\"\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch2\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0721\/4576\/4430\/files\/Watson-McDaniel-O-Series-Direct-Operated-Pressure-Regulators-Spec-Sheet.pdf?v=1786495419\"\u003eView Technical Specification Sheet Here\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e","brand":"Watson McDaniel","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44166076563534,"sku":"O-12-N-14-V","price":501.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0721\/4576\/4430\/files\/Watson-McDaniel-O-Series-Direct-Operated-Pressure-Regulators__37464.1784300214.1280.1280.jpg?v=1786666760","url":"https:\/\/valveman.com\/products\/1-2-watson-mcdaniel-o-12-n-14-v-direct-operated-pressure-regulators-for-water-oil-air-cast-iron-body-10-50-psig-viton-npt","provider":"ValveMan","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
