Description
A direct-acting pressure reducing valve, often simply called a pressure reducing valve (PRV) or pressure regulator, is a type of control valve used to reduce and maintain a lower, controlled pressure in a fluid system. These valves are commonly used in various industries, including plumbing, HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning), industrial processes, and water distribution systems.
Direct-acting pressure reducing valves are used in situations where maintaining a stable and reduced downstream pressure is essential for the safe and efficient operation of equipment and systems. They are often employed in water supply systems to reduce high mains pressure to a lower and more manageable pressure for domestic and industrial use. These valves are also used in steam systems, gas distribution networks, and many other applications where pressure control is necessary.
