OverviewHydraulically operated, diaphragm-actuated proportional pressure reducing valve that lowers higher upstream pressure to a controlled downstream pressure at a fixed reduction ratio determined by valve size and plug type.
Features & Benefits- Excellent anti-cavitation characteristics
- Wide flow range with high stability
- Drip-tight sealing for reliable shut-off
- In-line serviceable for simplified maintenance
Double chamber design- Moderated valve reaction for stable control
- Protected diaphragm to extend service life
- Optional operation at very low inlet pressures
- Moderated closing curve to reduce water hammer
Additional design highlights- Obstacle-free flow path to minimize clogging
- Optional V-Port throttling plug for enhanced low-flow stability
- Flexible configuration for accessory integration
- Certified to drinking-water and functional standards: EN-1074, NSF-ANSI 61-372, WRAS, AS 5081
Typical Applications- First stage in two-stage pressure-reduction systems
- Municipal and national water networks — pressure reduction on downhill pipelines
- High- and mid-rise buildings — two-stage reduction at pressure zone inlets (720-PD2)
- Pumping stations and reservoirs — minimize cavitation and noise in circulation and level-control valves
- Irrigation and remote systems
