integral two-psi regulators
Integral Two-psi regulators combine a First-Stage regulator
and a Second-Stage, Two-psi regulator into one compact unit.
Recommended for installations where piping distance is short,
integral Two-Stage, Two-psi regulators provide all of the advantages
of Two-Stage regulation (refer to page 23). Fisher

Two-Stage, Two-psi regulators are color coded gray with a white cap
and white UV rated cover for easy identi cation. Vents are screened
with standard Second-Stage vent orientation over the outlet. The
Types R632E and R232E rst-stage screened vent is threaded to
accept a 1/4-inch OD copper tube inverted fl are with a 7/16-24 UN
thread. The Types R23E and R632E have a temperature rating of
-20 to 160°F / -29 to 71°C, but have passed Fisher internal testing
for lockup, relief start-to-discharge and reseal down to -40°F / -40°C.
Type R632E – is an Underwriters Laboratories (UL
®
) listed regulator
with a capacity of up to 810,000 BTU per hour / 9.1 SCMH,
recommended for on-site cylinder installations, mobile homes and
domestic installations, where separation of the First and Second-
Stage is not cost effective. This unit offers a POL inlet connection for
the easy drop-in replacement of Single-Stage regulators.
Type R632E’s high capacity relief valve and large 3/4-inch screened
vent limit downstream pressure to less than 5 psig / 0.34 bar in
an overpressure situation as required by NFPA 58. Type R632E is
adjustable from 1 to 2.2 psig / 69 to 152 mbar, with a factory setpoint
of 11 inches w.c. / 27 mbar. The Type R632E features a 20-year
recommended replacement life.
Type R632E has 1/8-inch NPT built-in gauge taps ori ced to a
No. 54 drill size, on the upstream and downstream sides. These
taps provide easy access for testing the proper operation pressure
of the First and Second-Stage while the system is pressurized. This
regulator also features a large 3/4-inch drip-lip vent to reduce the
chance of blockage by freezing rain or sleet when properly installed
with the vent pointing down.
Type R232E – Designed for installations with small capacity loads
up to 450,000 BTU per hour / 5.1 SCMH. With an overall length
of 6.5 or 7 inches / 165 or 178 mm for NPT or FPOL connections
respectively, this compact unit ts easily into con ned spaces
and is ideal for ASME tanks used on small domestic loads.
Intermediate and outlet gauge taps facilitate easy system testing.
A 3/8-inch NPT vent allows easy installation of vent piping. Use
of a valve stem and lever provide stable regulation and excellent
durability. A large fabric-reinforced diaphragm provides accurate
regulation. The large ori ce assists in minimizing freeze problems.
Stainless steel internal and corrosion resistant coatings provide
excellent corrosion resistance. The Type R232E also has the design
that provides a recommended replacement life of 20 years.
Twin Cylinder Installations – The Type R232E can also be used
on twin cylinder hook-ups found on travel trailers and stationary
applications. These units offer a drip-lip vent style for installations
without a vent protector. Proper installation requires the vent to be
pointed down in a vertical position. Additional protection may be
required if road splatter is a problem.
