How to select a pressure regulator

[EllieWest83]

Hello,

I have a quick question surrounding pressure regulators. I am just wondering how you would choose the correct pressure regulator type for an oil & gas application? I have been looking online and spotted this page on Fluid Controls which explains pressure regulators in detail, but I am trying to ascertain what exactly I need to consider when choosing a pressure regulator?

Thanks in advance.

first consideration would be set out a meaningful specification.

It is a capital mistake to theorise before one has data. Insensibly one begins to twist facts to suit theories, instead of theories to suit facts. (Sherlock Holmes - A Scandal in Bohemia.)
