Abstract: Why was a regulator which utilizes a solid rubber plug for the inner valve designed? This is an often asked question that needs a clear answer since the regulator is a piece of equipment that must be reliable for long periods of time and often under adverse and changing line conditions. Primarily the solid rubber plug was used to obtain the best possible flowing conditions through the regulator, to give it a flow pattern that was dead straight, with an effective flow area that you could actually see through by looking into the end of the regulator (Figure 1), These particular characteristics could only be accomplished by expanding a resilient member into the flow area.
