  • In-line back pressure fluid regulators
    Patent number: 9152151
    Abstract: In-line back pressure fluid regulators are described. An example in-line fluid regulator includes a regulator body defining a sensing chamber and an outlet of a fluid flow path of the fluid regulator. The outlet is in fluid communication with the sensing chamber via a first flow passageway in the regulator body. A bonnet is coupled to the regulator body and defines an inlet of the fluid flow path and a loading chamber disposed between the sensing chamber and the inlet. The loading chamber is substantially sealed relative to the fluid flow path of the fluid regulator. A pressure sensor is disposed between the inlet and the sensing chamber, where the pressure sensor defines a second flow passageway to fluidly couple the inlet and the sensing chamber.

  • Regulators having an isolated loading chamber and blowout prevention apparatus
    Patent number: 9128492
    Abstract: Fluid regulators are described. An example regulator includes a regulator body defining a sensing chamber between an inlet and an outlet of a fluid flow passageway of the fluid regulator. A bonnet is coupled to the regulator body and defines a loading chamber disposed adjacent the sensing chamber. The loading chamber is substantially sealed relative to the sensing chamber and an environment surrounding the fluid regulator. A sensor guide is disposed between the sensing chamber and the loading chamber and has at least one seal to fluidly isolate the loading chamber from the sensing chamber. The sensor guide has a vent flow path between the sensing chamber and the loading chamber to vent the sensing chamber during a failure condition of the at least one seal.
