Abstract

Dome-loaded pressure regulators are disclosed. An example pressure regulator includes body having a pressure inlet and a pressure outlet. A piston is disposed in the body and fluidly coupled to the pressure inlet, the pressure outlet, and the pressure control inlet. The piston is configured to contact a valve seat and to control the flow of fluid from the pressure inlet to the pressure outlet in response to a pressure applied to a surface of the piston via the pressure control inlet.
