Abstract
A regulator arrangement for an inflatable includes a regulator housing comprising a bore, the bore comprising a longitudinal axis, a piston disposed in the bore and configured to translate, with respect to the regulator housing, along the longitudinal axis, an adjuster plug disposed in the bore and axially adjacent the piston, an adjuster plug stop disposed at least partially within the bore, and a spring member disposed between the adjuster plug and the piston. The adjuster plug comprises a tapered head and a shaft portion extending from the tapered head. The adjuster plug stop comprises a tapered surface configured to contact the tapered head.
