Screwed pressure reducing valve
Screwed Pressure Reducing Valve
A Screwed Pressure Reducing Valve (PRV) is a compact and efficient valve designed for precise pressure control in fluid and gas systems. It features threaded (screwed) connections, making it easy to install and maintain in various applications.
Key Features:
- Threaded (Screwed) Connection – Allows easy installation and removal without welding.
- Accurate Pressure Regulation – Maintains consistent downstream pressure in pipelines.
- Compact & Lightweight Design – Ideal for small-scale and confined space installations.
- Corrosion & Temperature Resistant – Available in brass, stainless steel, and alloy materials.
- Adjustable Pressure Settings – Enables customization based on system requirements.
Application:
- Plumbing & Water Supply Systems – Controls water pressure in residential and commercial buildings.
- HVAC & Fire Protection Systems – Ensures stable pressure for heating and safety equipment.
- Industrial Fluid & Gas Control – Regulates pressure in process industries.
- Oil & Chemical Processing – Prevents overpressure in chemical pipelines.
- Irrigation & Agricultural Systems – Ensures optimal water distribution for farming.
Advantages:
- Easy Installation & Maintenance – No welding required, making it user-friendly.
- Leak-Proof Design – Ensures reliable performance with proper sealing.
- Cost-Effective Solution – More affordable than flanged or welded alternatives.
- Durable & Long-Lasting – Resistant to corrosion and wear for extended service life.
- Versatile Compatibility – Works with different piping materials and pressure ranges.
Maintenance & Safety Tips:
- Check for Leaks & Loose Threads – Ensure proper sealing and prevent leaks.
- Monitor Pressure Regularly – Avoid excessive pressure that can damage the system.
- Clean or Replace Filters – Prevents debris from affecting valve operation.
- Ensure Proper Thread Sealing – Use Teflon tape or thread sealant for leak-free connections.
- Inspect for Wear & Corrosion – Regular checks extend valve lifespan and ensure safety.
