INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

SPECIFICATIONS

Each Type A-360 or A-361 pressure regulator 
is equipped with a pressure spring selected to 
provide the desired outlet or reduced pressure 
setting. The range of adjustment or satisfactory 
"working range" of individual springs is shown 
above for each valve size. Every regulator has 
the "set" pressure and range of adjustment 
stamped on a tag fastened to the valve. The 
ranges shown below are recommended for 
best performance.

HOW TO ORDER

To order repair parts, refer to the exploded view 
of the Type A-360 to identify the part required. 
When ordering, please use the part names 
listed and provide the valve serial number 
stated on the identification tag. Also state the 
following: "Repair Parts for A-360 or A361" 
and provide:
1.  Valve size
2.  Service (air, water, oil, non-corrosive liquids, 

or gas)

3.  Inlet pressure
4.  Outlet or delivery pressure range and setting
5.  Part description
6.  Quantity of each part
7.  Valve assembly or serial number stated 

on the metal identification tag under the 
adjusting screw lock nut.

Servicing the Seat Disk and Bottom O-Ring

1.  Loosen the lock nut and turn the adjusting 

screw counterclockwise until the pressure 
spring is no longer under tension. When 
reassembling, run the adjusting screw down 
until the lock nut almost touches the spring 
chamber. This will give you approximately 
the same set as before disassembly.

2.  Remove the bottom plug. Take care, as 

the bottom plug is under slight tension 
as a result of the piston spring acting 
against the bottom plug. Remove the 
piston subassembly, piston spring, and 
bottom o-ring. Lubricate bottom o-ring with 
Dow Corning Molykote 111 or equivalent 
before installing. Unscrew the pusher 
post from the piston to remove the seat 
disk. Do not lubricate the seat disk. When 
reassembling, ensure that the pusher post 
is seated completely against the seat disk; 
torque the bottom plug to approximately 
10 ft-lbs (13.6 N•m).

3.  Remove any debris from the valve body.

4.  Inspect all parts for wear and damage and 

replace if necessary.

5.  Reassemble the valve in reverse order. DO 

NOT OVERTIGHTEN. Follow the Operation 
Instructions to reset the delivery pressure.
