Honeywell International Inc. is committed to ensuring compliance with global laws that regulate its export and import activities. In following company procedures, it has been determined that is identified on a denied/restricted parties list that is applicable to this transaction.

Designed to withstand even the toughest environments, the pressure reducing valve (or PRV) is a hydraulically operated, diaphragm actuated control valve that reduces higher upstream pressure to lower constant downstream pressure—regardless of the fluctuating demand or the varying upstream force. Essentially, the valve maintains a steady state of pressure downstream, heedless of flow.

For the PRV to work with minimum maintenance and fault-free operation, it’s critical to filter the water entering the pilot regulator.  The larger filter increases reliability of the control valve system and time between maintenance, while minimising faulty operation and maintenance upkeep. To find out more about large control filters, head to our products page.

The valve body has an internal V port throttling plug that provides an accurate and stable response for flow and pressure regulation while simultaneously reducing noise and vibration. The V port throttling plug also enables the valve to operate close to zero without hunting.

Often referred to as the brain of the valve, the Bermad two-way balanced pilot valve determines the flow of water to and from the control chamber. This coincides with the needle valve to help regulate the flow and maintain a consistent pressure. See our product page to find out more about pilot regulators.
