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. [ 1 ]

3. Flow control valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_control_valve

   The most common final control element in the process control industries is the control valve. The control valve manipulates a flowing fluid, such as gas, steam, water, or chemical compounds, to compensate for the load disturbance and keep the regulated process variable as close as possible to the desired set point. [1]

4. Globe valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Globe_valve

   Internal parts of a typical globe valve. The body is the main pressure containing structure of the valve and the most easily identified as it forms the mass of the valve. It contains all of the valve's internal parts that will come in contact with the substance being controlled by the valve.

5. Mechanism of diving regulators - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanism_of_diving_regulators

   The valve is closed. The mechanism of diving regulators is the arrangement of components and function of gas pressure regulators used in the systems which supply breathing gases for underwater diving. Both free-flow and demand regulators use mechanical feedback of the downstream pressure to control the opening of a valve which controls gas flow ...

6. Control valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_valve

   Control valve. A control valve is a valve used to control fluid flow by varying the size of the flow passage as directed by a signal from a controller. [1] This enables the direct control of flow rate and the consequential control of process quantities such as pressure, temperature, and liquid level. In automatic control terminology, a control ...

7. Valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve

   A valve is a device or natural object that regulates, directs or controls the flow of a fluid (gases, liquids, fluidized solids, or slurries) by opening, closing, or partially obstructing various passageways. Valves are technically fittings, but are usually discussed as a separate category. In an open valve, fluid flows in a direction from ...
