Introduction
The Type 92CT is a pilot-operated, direct-acting temperature regulator that does not require an external power
supply. The Type 92CT is used in heating applications
where steam or hot water is normally the heating medium. With proper system sizing, the Type 92CT is
accurate within 3% of the maximum temperature setpoint
at steady state operating conditions. The key component
of the Type 92CT is the thermostat of the Type 92T
temperature pilot. The temperature pilots thermostat
consists of a spring opposed bellows-capillary-bulb
system. This system contains a fill of an incompressible
fluid at a pressure that is calibrated to the pilot's temperature control range to provide proportional control.
Turn the adjusting knob of the temperature pilot until steady-state operation is
attained. Install a temperature gauge in
the process piping to facilitate setpoint
adjustment.
Since the Type 92CT is a temperature control regulator,
it does not sense downstream pressure. During
startup of a heating system, the downstream pressure
could rise to full inlet pressure which can be above
safe operating pressures. In these applications, it is

Temperature Adjustment
Temperature adjustments are made by turning the green
adjusting knob (see figure 3) on top of the pilot body
assembly clockwise to decrease and counterclockwise to increase the temperature. The color-coded
temperature range label shows the high and low ends of
the pilot's temperature control range. Exact values
depend on pressures and flow. To make final setpoint,
use a temperature gauge to find the actual temperature.
Pressure Adjustment
Pressure adjustments are made by turning the pressure
adjusting screw clockwise to increase the pressure
setting or counterclockwise to decrease the setting. See
table 3 for psig (bar) per turn by spring range. Check
the Type 92CTP Startup section before making pressure
adjustments.

Pre-Startup Guidelines
1. Make sure the thermostat bulb or thermowell is
fully immersed in the process media. Large tanks
should have adequate circulation and mixing to ensure
uniform tank temperature.
2. To prevent condensate from flooding heat transfer
surfaces, make sure the condensate removal system is
installed and sized adequately.
3. The heat transfer equipment should be sized with
an approach temperature suitable for the process. The
approach temperature is the difference between steam
temperature and the set temperature of the regulator.
As a general rule, an approach temperature of 30F
(17C) is typical for heating water.
4. A vacuum breaker should be installed to prevent
a vacuum on the steam side of the heat transfer
equipment (if required).
5. Ensure a temperature gauge is installed in the
process fluid and it is easily viewed from the temperature pilot's adjusting knob. The temperature range label

Maintenance
Regulator parts are subject to normal wear and must be
inspected periodically and replaced as necessary. The
frequency of inspection and replacement depends upon
the severity of service conditions and upon applicable
Federal, state, and local codes and regulations.
The regulator may remain in the pipeline during maintenance procedures. The pilot(s) may remain on the main
valve during maintenance.

3. The steam trap may be operating below its minimum pressure differential.
4. The capillary tubing may be kinked or broken.
5. A failed bellows may have caused the thermostat
bulb to loose its fill.
6. Inlet process temperature may have dropped below
acceptable heat exchanger ratings.
7. The tank may not be mixed adequately.
8. A vacuum breaker may need to be installed on the
heat exchanger allowing condensate buildup.
9. There is no thermowell compound between the
thermowell and the thermostat bulb.
10. The regulator may be operating below its minimum
pressure differential.
11. The regulator may be undersized and will not pass
the required flow.
The following is a list of possible causes if the control
temperature cycles around the set temperature:
1. The condensate control system may not be
operating properly.
5. Place the valve plug spring (key 11) into the valve
plug guide (key 5). Insert the valve plug cap (key 26)
into the valve plug (key 4), and then slide both parts
over the spring and into the valve plug guide. Place the
strainer screen (key 12) onto the valve plug guide.
Apply sealant to the valve plug guide threads and metal
body seal surface, then screw the valve plug guide with
the attached parts into the pilot body (key 1).
