Hosco patented regulator/restrictor family of products allows manual sprayers to consistently and precisely control spray gun flow rates from 100 cc/min to 1000 cc/min with little regard to head pressure or gun elevation changes. Combining the functions of a regulator (which controls pressure) and a restrictor (which controls flow rate) into this compact package allows sprayers to provide consistent film builds regardless of the change in gun position or elevation. With the implementation of high transfer efficiency spray guns, this precise control is much more important at the lower station flow rates of these spray guns. As you can see from the graph at the right, a regulator control device alone is not recommended below 275 cc/min as it is recommended to operate the regulator between 15 psi and 30 psi outlet pressure. Combining the integral restrictor creates outlet flow restriction to control the flow to 100 cc/min lower thresholds. Hosco recommends fluid inlet pressure of 80 psig or more from the paint circulation system.
