Pressure Reducing Valves
Brass Pressure Reducing Valve – Self Acting, Spring Operated
A Brass Pressure Reducing Valve is an essential flow-control component designed to maintain a stable and reduced downstream pressure in water, steam, oil, or gas applications. Manufactured from high-quality forged brass, this self-acting, spring-operated valve ensures reliable and efficient performance without the need for external energy or instruments. The valve functions automatically, responding directly to changes in inlet pressure through a flexible diaphragm that senses pressure variations and adjusts the opening accordingly.
The diaphragm plays a crucial role in regulating the outlet pressure. When the upstream pressure increases, the pressure acts on the diaphragm, causing the valve to throttle and maintain the preset pressure. When the pressure drops, the diaphragm allows the valve to open further, ensuring a continuous, controlled flow. This automatic balancing mechanism makes the valve ideal for applications requiring consistent downstream pressure and stable system performance.
These valves are widely used in plumbing systems, water supply lines, steam distribution networks, fuel and oil lines, compressed air systems, and gas installations. Their robust brass construction offers excellent corrosion resistance, long service life, and suitability for diverse working environments. The spring-loaded adjustment system allows the user to easily set and maintain the desired outlet pressure, ensuring safe and efficient operation.
Brass Pressure Reducing Valves are commonly installed in residential, commercial, and industrial sectors to prevent over-pressurization, protect pipelines, safeguard equipment, and enhance overall system efficiency. Their compact design, easy installation, and low maintenance requirements make them a preferred choice for engineers and technicians.
