P133 Gas Pressure Regulator (External Registration)
We stock the P133 in outlet pressures up to 10 PSIG. For outlets over 10 PSIG, or for worker monitor setups, please Contact Us to confirm availability and configure the right unit for your application.
The BelGAS P133 gas pressure regulator is a manual, direct-acting, spring-loaded adjustable regulator used in commercial and industrial applications where accuracy and sensitivity are critical — furnaces, burners, boilers, gas engines, and compressors. It uses a balanced diaphragm design to minimize the effects of upstream (supply) pressure changes on the downstream (output) pressure, so it holds a steady, accurate set point even as supply conditions shift. A bubble-tight shut-off means no seat-to-seat adjustment is required, and the regulator reliably operates across a temperature range of -40°F to 200°F.
The P133 is particularly well suited to worker monitor setups. Because it's rated for pressure monitoring service, it's a natural fit as the working monitor regulator in a monitor/worker system — providing a second, independent stage of pressure control downstream of (or alongside) a primary regulator for added protection against overpressure events. This makes the P133 a go-to choice anywhere code or good practice calls for redundant regulation. Since worker monitor configurations vary by application, contact us and we'll help you spec the right setup.
The P133 uses external pressure registration — an external control line connects the outlet piping to the diaphragm chamber. This is the traditional, field-proven setup and gives installers flexibility in how and where they tap the sense line.
Note: If you're looking for a simpler, single-connection install without running an external sense line, we recommend the BelGAS P134 — a variation of the P133 platform with internal pressure registration built in. [Link to P134 product page]
The P133 is one of our most popular regulators — it's a direct functional replacement for the Honeywell/American Meter 3000 Series and for Fisher 133 / 133HP / 166 regulators.

Suggested cross-reference blurb for the listing:
Cross Reference: The P133 is a direct replacement for the Honeywell/American Meter 3000 Series and Fisher 133, 133HP, and 166 (obsolete) regulators, as well as Itron RB1700/RB4000 and Sensus 121-12/121-8HP. If you're replacing any of these models, the P133 is a drop-in upgrade — and if you'd prefer to skip running an external sense line, see our BelGAS P134, which uses the same platform with internal registration for an easier single-connection install.
