Introduction
Scope of Manual
This instruction manual provides operating, installation,
maintenance, and parts information for the 630 Series regu-
lators and relief valves.
Description
The 630 Series consists of self-operated, spring loaded
Type 630 Big JoeR pressure regulators and Type 630R re-
lief valves which are designed for maximum inlet pressures
to 1500 psig (103.4 bar) and outlet pressures from 3 to 500
psig (.21 to 34.5 bar).

Overpressure Protection

loaded regulators have outlet pressure ratings that are low-
er than the inlet pressure ratings. Overpressure protection Overpressuring any portion of this equip-
