2. Pressure regulator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_regulator

   They differ from pressure reducing regulators in that the pressure reducing regulator controls downstream pressure and is insensitive to upstream pressure. [2] It is a normally-closed valve which may be installed in parallel with sensitive equipment or after the sensitive equipment to provide an obstruction to flow and thereby maintain upstream ...

3. List of valves - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_valves

   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. 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.

5. Pilot-operated relief valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilot-operated_relief_valve

   The pressure at which the control pilot relieves is the functional set pressure of the PORV. When the pilot valve reaches set pressure it opens and releases the pressure from the dome. The piston is then free to open and the main valve exhausts the system fluid. The control pilot opens either to the main valve exhaust pipe or to atmosphere ...

6. Flow control valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_control_valve

   Automatic control valves do not require an external power source, meaning that the fluid pressure is enough to open and close them. Automatic control valves include pressure reducing valves , flow control valves, back-pressure sustaining valves, altitude valves , and relief valves .
