Abstract
A pressure regulator including a closure resisting mechanism that increases the total closure resisting force of a closure element to prevent the closure element from moving into a closed position until a predetermined pressure set point is reached. The closure resisting mechanism operates automatically and is spring actuated in response to pressure within a fluid pathway of the regulator. The closure resisting mechanism is disposed external to the fluid pathway so as not to impede fluid flow.
