Sensus 046-1 Regulator
The Sensus 046-1 high pressure service regulator is a heavy-duty solution for commercial and industrial gas regulation, specifically configured here with a 1-inch NPT connection and a 3/16-inch orifice. This model utilizes a yellow spring to provide precise downstream pressure control, making it ideal for applications involving small furnaces, water heaters, and internal combustion engines. Designed for natural gas, LP gas, and dry CO2, the 046-1 handles high inlet pressures while maintaining a stable outlet via its large diaphragm area. The 3/16-inch orifice ensures consistent flow rates and minimizes seat wear during rapid demand cycles. This unit features a 360-degree rotatable union nut, allowing for flexible positioning in tight piping manifolds without disturbing the inlet or outlet venting requirements. For contractors, the Sensus 046-1 gas regulator offers a field-proven design with a quick-response internal relief valve for bolstered overpressure protection.
- Precise Pressure Control: The yellow spring configuration allows for fine-tuned setpoint adjustments in high-demand industrial environments.
- Durable Internal Metering: Equipped with a 3/16-inch orifice to optimize flow velocity and prevent hunting in the gas stream.
- Versatile Installation: The 1" NPT body and rotatable union simplify integration into existing commercial gas meter sets.
- Rugged Build Quality: Cast iron or aluminum construction ensures long-term structural integrity in outdoor or harsh mechanical room settings.
Common Questions
What is the maximum inlet pressure for the Sensus 046-1 with a 3/16-inch orifice?
The Sensus 046-1 is typically rated for inlet pressures up to 125 PSIG, though actual capacity depends on the specific orifice size and desired outlet pressure offset.
Can the 360-degree union nut be adjusted while the line is pressurized?
No. The system must be depressurized before adjusting the union nut or rotating the diaphragm case to ensure seal integrity and technician safety.
Is the Sensus 046-1 compatible with propane (LP) applications?
Yes, this regulator is suitable for LP gas, though flow capacities should be derated based on the specific gravity of propane compared to natural gas.
