Pressure Reducing Valve (PRV)

⚙️ How the PRV Delivers Stable Control

The PRV operates using the energy of the fluid itself via an integrated spring-loaded diaphragm or piston mechanism.

• When Inlet Pressure Rises: The high pressure forces the diaphragm/piston to compress the spring and move the valve plug toward the seat. This action reduces the flow passage, effectively throttling the fluid and automatically lowering the outlet (downstream) pressure back to the desired setpoint.
• When Inlet Pressure Drops: The spring force overcomes the reduced inlet pressure, moving the plug away from the seat. This increases the flow passage, allowing more fluid through to maintain the stable outlet pressure.

This continuous, automatic modulation ensures your system is protected from damaging pressure spikes and maintains optimal operating conditions.

✅ Key Applications and Industries

The PRV is an essential component providing critical pressure control in high-demand environments:

• Water Supply & Sewage: Protecting residential, commercial, and municipal piping from excessive street pressure.
• HVAC Systems: Maintaining regulated pressure in chiller and boiler loops.
• Food & Beverage: Ensuring stable pressure for processing lines and equipment protection.
• Chemical/Petrochemical Processing: Critical for regulating fluid inputs to reactors and sensitive instruments.
• Power and Utilities: Controlling fluid inputs in high-pressure steam and water systems.
• Ship Building & Pulp and Paper: Used in various utility and process control lines.
