2. Pressure regulator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/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 hydraulic actuators respond to changes of pressure or flow and will open or 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. Flow control valves, a type of automatic control valve, regulate fluid flow by maintaining a predetermined flow rate ...

4. Regulator (automatic control) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regulator_(automatic_control)

   Examples are a voltage regulator (which can be a transformer whose voltage ratio of transformation can be adjusted, or an electronic circuit that produces a defined voltage), a pressure regulator, such as a diving regulator, which maintains its output at a fixed pressure lower than its input, and a fuel regulator (which controls the supply of ...

5. Control valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/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.

6. 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 ...

7. Mass flow controller - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_flow_controller

   All mass flow controllers have an inlet port, an outlet port, a mass flow sensor and a proportional control valve. The MFC is fitted with a closed loop control system which is given an input signal by the operator (or an external circuit/computer) that it compares to the value from the mass flow sensor and adjusts the proportional valve ...
