Installation of a pressure reducing valve

The guarantee of long and trouble-free operation of reduction valves is their installation in accordance with the installation instructions, in addition, the following recommendations should be taken into account:

• A strainer should be installed before the reduction valve in the direction of water flow.
• Manometers should be installed before and after the reduction valve, necessary for adjustment and monitoring of the valve operation.
• In responsible areas where pressure increase beyond the setting pressure is unacceptable, a safety valve should be installed after the reduction valve.
• The mounting position of the reduction valves can be any on a horizontal, vertical or inclined pipeline, unless otherwise specified in the installation instructions.
• The valve body should not be subjected to torsion, tension, bending or compression loads from connected pipelines.
