Pressure Reducing Control Valve

What is Pressure Reducing Control Valve?

A pressure reducing control valve is a type of control valve used to regulate the pressure of the fluid in a system. It is often used in industrial and commercial applications to maintain a consistent pressure in the system regardless of fluctuations in demand or other external factors. The valve works by automatically adjusting the flow rate of the fluid through the valve to maintain the desired pressure. This is usually done using a spring-loaded diaphragm or a sliding piston that moves in response to changes in pressure. The valve can be controlled manually or via an automatic control system, depending on the specific application.

How Does a Pressure Reducing Control Valve Work?

Pressure reducing hydraulic control valves are used to reduce the high pressure value in the water transmission network lines to a lower desired value. Pressure reducing control valves maintain the adjusted output pressure value without being affected by flow and flow changes in the network. Pipe diameter is not taken into account when choosing valve diameter. The valve diameter can be selected as small or one larger than the pipe diameter. Cavitation values ​​should be taken into account when choosing the valve diameter.

What is a Control Valve?

control valve; A valve used to control fluid by changing the size of the flow passage as directed by a signal from a controller. Control valves provide pressure, temperature, flow and level control in all processes where fluid is present. Control valves are used for cold water, hot water, steam, superheated water, steam and gas etc. produced by consuming energy in enterprises. It ensures that the fluids can be transported and controlled without any loss.

General Features

• Pressure reducing hydraulic control valve works fully automatically with mains pressure without needing any external energy.
• The 2-way pressure reducing pilot valve used on the control valve reduces the output pressure to the desired value without being affected by the flow rate changes in the network.
• When the inlet pressure value in the network drops below the desired outlet pressure value, the valve opens fully.
• In water transmission networks with variable flow rate, it is recommended to connect a pressure reducing control valve with a smaller diameter than the existing pressure reducing control valve to the network as a by-pass line.
• When there is no water in the mains, the valve closes itself automatically.
