Large-diameter control valves are essential components in municipal water systems and key water supply infrastructure, such as dams, reservoirs, and large-scale irrigation networks. These control valves are designed with specific features that enable them to handle substantial water flow, making them essential for efficient water distribution and management. Their role is pivotal in maintaining reliable operations, ensuring smooth maintenance, and upholding the overall integrity of water supply systems. The use of large control valves ensures that these vital systems can handle high-volume demands and prevent disruptions in service.

How Does a Pressure Reducing Valve (PRV) Work?

Function of a Pressure Reducing Valve

Designed to withstand even the toughest environments, the pressure reducing valve (or PRV) is a hydraulically operated, diaphragm actuated control valve that reduces higher upstream pressure to lower constant downstream pressure—regardless of the fluctuating demand or the varying upstream force. Essentially, the valve maintains a steady state of pressure downstream, heedless of flow.
