The invention relates to a regulator, configured to receive a hot air flow via an air inlet (12), to treat this hot air and to transmit the treated hot air to an air outlet (14) configured to supply a pneumatic actuator (16), comprising at least one temperature-sensitive electrical and/or mechanical element (36, 37), and a regulator body (100). The regulator is characterized in that the regulator body is composed of a heat-conducting hollow enclosure (28) at least partially surrounding a duct (22) for transporting the hot air flow, said cavity being at least partially filled with a metal mesh produced by additive manufacturing that allows the cooling air to circulate, and in that the temperature-sensitive electrical and/or mechanical element (36, 37) is arranged in, or in contact with, the regulator so as to be cooled by the cooling air by thermal conduction.
