African Valve is the leaading Pressure Reducing Valve supplier in Nigeria. Pressure Reducing Valves also known as pressure regulators play a crucial role in various industries and applications where controlling and regulating fluid pressure is essential, these valves are designed to maintain a preset pressure downstream of the valve. These valves are installed in a pipeline where it receives fluid at a higher pressure from the upstream and releases it at a lower, regulated pressure on the downstream side.

 

Types of Pressure Reducing Valve we supply:

  • Pilot operated pressure reducing valve

  • Steam pressure reducing valve

  • Pressure relief and sustaining valve

  • Float control valve

  • Direct acting pressure reducing valve

 

How it works:

  • Pressure reducing valves are installed within fluid systems where there is a high-pressure source and a lower-pressure requirement.

  • Valves feature an adjustable mechanism that responds to changes in pressure; this mechanism can be adjusted to set the desired outlet pressure.

  • Pressure reducing valves often incorporate a pilot system to sense the pressure and compare it to the setpoint to regulate the flow of fluid.

  • The pilot system is connected to a control valve that regulates the flow of fluid within the pressure reducing valve. When the outlet pressure deviates from the setpoint, the pilot system sends a signal to the control valve and adjusts accordingly.

 

Importance of Pressure reducing valves

Pressure Reducing Valves are designed to operate within specific pressure ranges; excessive pressure can damage or even destroy equipment such as pipes, valves, pumps, and sensitive instruments; these valves ensure that pressure is maintained within safe operating limits, and extend the lifespan of equipment and reduce maintenance costs. They play a critical role in industries where pressure control is important such as power generation and water distribution systems.
