A gas pressure regulator has an inlet for connection to an upstream gas line for flow of gas into the regulator under pressure and an outlet for connection to a downstream gas line for flow of gas out of the regulator at a reduced pressure. A pilot mechanism delivers a desired pilot gas pressure through a pilot passage. A main valve mechanism regulates the flow of gas through a main flow passage connecting the inlet and outlet of the regulator. The regulator has a piston chamber, and a piston operatively connected to the main valve mechanism and movable in the piston chamber. The main valve mechanism has a passageway between the piston chamber and the pilot passage whereby the pilot gas pressure is adapted to move the piston and thereby position the main valve mechanism to regulate the gas pressure at the outlet of the regulator. |
