Adjusting pressure reducing valve
Adjusting Pressure Reducing Valve
A pressure-reducing valve (PRV) is designed to regulate and maintain a consistent downstream pressure by automatically reducing a higher inlet pressure to a desired lower outlet pressure. Adjusting the PRV typically involves turning an adjustment screw or knob to increase or decrease the pressure while monitoring a pressure gauge. Proper adjustment ensures optimal performance, preventing system damage and ensuring efficiency.
