Pressure reducing valves are used:

• In sanitary systems

- to keep the pressure of the water constant in the distribution network downstream of the valve

- to avoid excessive withdrawals of water by controlling the pressure at the tap

- to keep the water pressure constantly below the maximum value allowed

• In compressed air systems

- to keep the pressure constant in the network, irrespective of the oscillations in the pressure supplied by the

compressors

• Downstream of storage tanks or cylinders

- to reduce and stabilize the pressure in the network, which is normally lower

The pressure reducing valves are used not only for water but also for air and non-aggressive gases.

The DRV, DRVM, DRVN, DRVMN Series pressure reducing valves are compensated seat type. This means that as the

inlet pressure acts on the two openings A and B (see Fig.1) having the same cross section, it is compensated and does not

therefore result in any force on the pin-plug system when the opening angle of the valve is varied. The outlet pressure acts

on the diaphragm and thus also on the pin–plug system, which is thus subjected to two contrasting forces: the force exerted

by the outlet pressure, which tends to close the plug and the force exerted by the spring, which tends to open it. As a result,

the compensated seat valve has an outlet pressure virtually insensitive to variations in pressure upstream.

Application

Operation

Watts Water Technologies, Inc.

The difference between the downstream pressure P2 measured with no flow and the same pressure measured at

the generic flow rate Q represents the pressure drop DP of the pressure reducing valve. It depends on the flow

rate, as indicated by the pressure drop diagrams. If you want the downstream pressure never to exceed a given

value P2, you must regulate this to value P2 with no flow. At flow Q, the downstream pressure will be less than

value P2 by an amount equivalent to the pressure drops DP. If the pressure reducing valve is installed to

guarantee that the downstream pressure reaches a given value P2 at a given flow rate Q, this pressure must be

regulated to value P2 + DP with no flow. At flow rate Q, the downstream pressure will be equivalent to P2.

The criterion for choosing the pressure reducing valve consists in determining the diameter in such a way that the speed of

the fluid does not reach excessively high values, at the rated flow rate, causing excessive pressure drop and outflow noise

transmitted to the distribution network. The flow rate-speed diagrams help you to choose the diameter of the pressure

reducing valve in the case of liquids (see water) or gases at pressures of 8-10 bar (see air).

Example 1 (cavitation)

Pressure reducing valve with:

Inlet pressure P1=14 bar

Outlet pressure P2=3 bar

From the cavitation diagram it can be seen that the pressure reducing valve is constantly working in the red zone.

To avoid rapid deterioration, two pressure reducing valves could be used, one connected upstream to the other.

Upstream pressure reducing valve: pressure front from 14 to 6 bar (green zone).

Downstream pressure reducing valve: pressure front from 6 to 3 bar (green zone).

Example 2 (flow rate)

DRV/N pressure reducing valve with:

Inlet pressure (minimum) P1=8 bar

Outlet pressure P2=4 bar

Maximum flow rate Q = 50 l/min

From the flow rate-speed diagram, it can be deduced that a 20 or 25 diameter should be used.

From the pressure drop diagram, the following two cases emerge:

DRV20/N Q = 50 l/min Dp=1.1 bar

DRV25/N Q = 50 l/min Dp=0.68 bar

Setting

Sizing

Exemples of sizing

Watts Water Technologies, Inc.

The cavitation diagram shows three operating zones of the pressure reducing valve plotted against the upstream and downstream

pressures, namely:

C zone: normal duty, no cavitation

B zone: medium duty, risk of cavitation

A zone: heavy duty, the pressure reducing valve shows cavitation.

Continuous operation in the red cavitation zone could cause rapid damage of the internal parts. If the pressure reducing valve is to

operate in the red zone, contact the Technical Department of Watts Industries Italia.
