Pressure Reducing Valve Installation
Is the pressure reducing valve suitable for horizontal installation or vertical installation?
The adjustable pressure reducing valve should be installed horizontally, the proportional pressure reducing valve should be installed vertically, and the steam pressure reducing valve can be installed horizontally or vertically.
The fundamental influencing factor of horizontal installation or vertical installation is gravity. Both types of pressure reducing valves rely on the movement of the fluid pressure differential spool to adjust the size of the orifice, so the gravity of the spool will affect the pressure.
In terms of structure, the valve core of the adjustable pressure reducing valve is mostly vertical inlet and outlet, and the valve core of the proportional pressure reducing valve is mostly parallel inlet and outlet, so how to install the pressure reducing valve is not absolute, it is relative to the specific valve structure Said.
The pressure relief valve installation should be determined according to the structure and flow direction of our pipeline. The installation direction is not necessarily absolute. We can also install it vertically without affecting the gravity.
