Abstract

See full text

The present invention provides a supplementary pressure regulator that can be used with conventional single or multi-stage pressure regulators. It may also conveniently be used with a novel two stage balanced pressure regulator to form a three-stage vacuum demand pressure regulation system which may be used to regulate the pressure of compressed gases used as fuel in engines, such as natural gas used in natural gas powered vehicles. The pressure regulator of the present invention is a robust, compact, high flow, low droop, low pressure drop, low set-point drift and low creep regulator which is suitable for both OEM and after market use. It is particularly useful in mono-, bi-, and dual fuel engine applications.
