Wide-Open Monitoring Systems (Figure 4)
There are two types of wide-open monitoring systems: 
upstream and downstream. The difference between 
upstream and downstream monitoring is that the 
functions of the regulators are reversed. Systems can 
be changed from upstream to downstream monitoring 
and vice-versa, by simply reversing the setpoints 
of the two regulators. The decision to use either an 
upstream or downstream monitoring system is largely 
a matter of personal preference or company policy.
In normal operation of a wide-open conguration, 
the working regulator controls the system’s outlet 
pressure. With a higher outlet pressure setting, the
monitor regulator senses a pressure lower than its 
setpoint and tries to increase outlet pressure by going 
wide-open. If the working regulator fails, the monitoring 
regulator assumes control and holds the outlet 
pressure at its outlet pressure setting.
Figure 4 shows an upstream wide-open monitor 
Type EZH (fail-to-close) and a downstream active 
regulator Type EZHSO (fail-to-open). In this 
installation, if the Type EZHSO regulator no longer 
controls downstream pressure, it will remain open, 
letting the Type EZH monitor regulator take control 
of the downstream pressure. Should the Type EZH 
fail, the monitor regulator will close and protect the 
downstream system from overpressure condition.
Working Monitoring Regulators (Figure 5)
In a working monitoring system, the upstream 
regulator requires two pilots and it is always the 
monitoring regulator. The additional pilot permits
the monitoring regulator to act as a series regulator 
to control an intermediate pressure during normal 
operation. In this way, both units are always operating 
and can be easily checked for proper operation. 
In normal operation, the working regulator controls 
the outlet pressure of the system. The monitoring 
regulator’s working pilot controls the intermediate 
pressure and the monitoring pilot senses the system’s 
outlet pressure. If the working regulator fails, the 
monitoring pilot will sense the increase in outlet 
pressure and take control.
Working monitor installations require a Type EZH or 
EZHSO main valve with a Type PRX/120 or 
PRX/120-AP working pilot and a Type PRX/125 
or PRX/125-AP monitoring pilot for the upstream 
regulator and a Type EZH or EZHSO with the 
appropriate Type PRX/120 or PRX/120-AP pilot for the 
downstream regulator.
