smallest size inline pressure regulator you have seen for 1/2" pipe

smallest size inline pressure regulator you have seen for 1/2" pipe

smallest size inline pressure regulator you have seen for 1/2" pipe

(OP)
Need pressure adjustable down about 40-50psi drop from input pressure which is about 100psi, medium is #2 fuel oil, pipe size is 1/2"

the boss wants me to find the smallest possible pressure regulator to put inline in the 1/2" pipe... he wants it to take up the least amount of space possible.

most of the ones I am finding are decent size like from fisher control and such... anyone know of a compact regulator that does a good job?

Thanks

What about Go Reguators.  They are pretty small and I have never had a problem with them.  Granted I always use them on gas, not liquid.

A pilot operated regulator will be smaller than a spring-loaded one.
Then you can place the controlling regulator where you have more space and better access.
