The pressure regulator converts variable inlet pressures into a lower, constant outlet pressure. It can be used to protect equipment from high or inconsistent incoming medium pressure.
Due to the reduced outlet pressure, which acts against an orifice plate, the flow rate can also be set in a defined manner and is largely independent of the inlet pressure within the specified setting limits.
This benefits units that require a constant supply or are to be filled with a defined volume in a time-controlled manner.
Pressure reducers with a fixed back pressure are also available as an option.
To ensure operation and long reliability of the pressure regulator it is recommended that a dirt strainer is fitted to the inlet. Check valves or solenoid valves can be placed downstream of the regulator.
The hydraulic functionality according to DIN EN 1567 is confirmed by an accredited laboratory. Furthermore, WRAS and SVGW approved versions are available.
