1800CPB2
Pilot-Loaded Service Regulator
Brief information
Application: The 1800CPB2 regulator is designed for pressure reducing
service requiring stability and metering accuracy. They are used on gas
distribution systems as intermediate or low- pressure regulators. They are
also effective for large farm and commercial operations with widely varying
inlet pressures up to 125 PSIG with accurate control of outlet pressures
between 1 PSIG and 30 PSIG. 1800CPB2 regulators are excellent for use
with American Meter large capacity meters as well as with American Meter FEATURES & BENEFITS
domestic meters. Model 1883CPB2 is equipped with overpressure shut-off
(OPSO) that provides protection against downstream overpressure (see Main Features
page 7).

General Information
The American Meter Series 1800CPB2 pressure regulator is designed for
natural gas applications and features a compact, lightweight design for fast,
easy installation.
The pilot regulator (one spring controls all outlet pressures from 1 PSIG to
30 PSIG) is used to load pressure on the diaphragm of the main regulator.
Adjustment of the pilot regulator depends upon the inlet pressure and outlet
pressure range desired. The pilot regulator using upstream pressure as its
supply, reduces this pressure to a pre- determined value and then loads the
main regulator diaphragm. The loading pressure overcomes the force of the AC-630 Aluminum
main regulator spring causing the main regulator to open. case Meter with

1800CPB2 Regulator Information
Where temperature varies, American Meter recommends the 1800CPB2 regulator be used with a pressure
compensating index for the desired metering pressure and with an American Meter temperature compensated
meter to provide accurate flow measurement without subsequent calculations
