Pressure Regulating Valves
Pressure Regulating Valve is self contained, self Operated control device, which automatically reduce a higher inlet pressure to a steady lower downstream pressure regardless of changing flow rate and varying inlet pressure. It utilizes energy from the controlled system. The regulator operates on the simple principal of force balance. A Downward opening force is exerted by the actuator spring, which is balanced by the upward force exerted by the controlled outlet pressure acting below the diaphragm. Any drop in controlled outlet Pressure due to consumption of Fluid, disturbs the force balance and due to spring force diaphragm and stem move down pushing the valve plug away from seat. This results in the increased flow. The pressure reducing regulators are manufactured in a variety to manage downstream system pressures in low, medium, high flow application; model features a diaphragm/Piston type or combination of both to suit different applications. These regulators find applications throughout many industries including the Oil & Gas, Pulp & Paper, Power Generation and chemicals processing industries etc.
