Pressure Regulator Comparison What should your regulator do… REGULATE OR STRANGULATE?

How do you define a good regulator? By how little the actual downstream pressure deviates from the set point.

How the Test was done… Regulators purchased from Authorized Distributors Set at 30 psi Using city water averaging 95 PSI Downstream ball valve slowly opened to allow 6 gpm flow

Test #1 The Discount Regulator

Preset at 30 psi

Drops to about 7½ psi

Test #2 An Internationally known brand

Preset at 30 psi

Drops to 14 psi

Test #3 Plast-O-Matic spring loaded regulator

Preset at 30 psi

Drops to 23 psi

Test #4 Plast-O-Matic air loaded regulator & patented Stabilizer

Preset at 30 psi

Drops to 29.5 psi

Plast-O-Matic Regulators Better flow Less Drop-off from set pressure
