Abstract

A fluid pressure regulator capable of adjustably setting a cut-off pressure between an upper and a lower limit having a two-piece valve body where the two pieces are threadably joined such that adjusting the distance between the two pieces (34, 54) of the valve body moves a piston (12) stem valve operating a high pressure port (40) towards or away from the high pressure port while not changing the distance between a spring (84) engaging the piston (12) and the piston head (14).
