  2. Pressure reducing regulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_regulator

    Two types are found: The pressure reduction regulator and the back-pressure regulator. A pressure reducing regulator is a control valve that reduces the input pressure of a fluid to a desired value at its output. It is a normally-open valve and is installed upstream of pressure sensitive equipment.

    Pressure regulator or pressure reducing valve (PRV): reduces pressure to a preset level downstream of the valve; Pressure sustaining valve, or back-pressure regulator: maintains pressure at a preset level upstream of the valve; Presta valve, Schrader valve, or Dunlop valve, holds the air inside bicycle tires; Pulse valve, extremely fast pulsing ...

  4. Flow control valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_control_valve

    These types of valves are also known as automatic control valves. The hydraulic actuators respond to changes of pressure or flow and will open/close the valve. Automatic control valves do not require an external power source, meaning that the fluid pressure is enough to open and close them.

  5. Diving regulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diving_regulator

    A scuba regulator first stage has one or two high pressure ports upstream of all pressure-reducing valves to monitor the gas pressure remaining in the diving cylinder, provided that the valve is open. The standard connection is an O-ring sealed 7/16" UNF inside thread. [1] There are several types of pressure gauge.

  6. Relief valve - Wikipedia

    A relief valve DN25 on cooling water pipe from heat exchanger Schematic diagram of a conventional spring-loaded pressure relief valve. A relief valve or pressure relief valve (PRV) is a type of safety valve used to control or limit the pressure in a system; excessive pressure might otherwise build up and create a process upset, instrument or equipment failure, explosion, or fire.

  7. Talk:Pressure regulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Pressure_regulator

    Opening definition "A pressure regulator is a valve that automatically cuts off the flow of a liquid or gas at a certain pressure." is wrong! (that describes a check-valve). It does nothing of the sort. Pressure regulators do not control flow. They simply control the supply pressure to a downstream process from an upstream higher pressure source.
