Pressure Reducing Valve
Pressure Reducing Valve
African Valve is a dependable Pressure Reducing Valve Supplier in Nigeria, offering engineered solutions to control downstream pressure in fluid systems. Our valves are designed to reduce and stabilize inlet pressure to a safer, user-defined outlet level, ensuring system integrity and consistent flow. Built with robust construction and precision internals, they help prevent pressure surges and minimize wear on downstream components.
Function & Working
A pressure reducing valve automatically lowers the incoming pressure of a fluid (gas, steam, or liquid) to a desired lower output pressure. It senses downstream pressure changes and modulates the valve opening to maintain a constant set pressure, ensuring system protection and performance stability.
