Steam pressure-reducing valve

A steam pressure-reducing valve controls downstream pressure below the upstream supply, but the title does not identify direct-operated or pilot-operated principle or one body design. Flow, inlet and outlet pressures, low-load behaviour, downstream protection, and steam quality must be engineered for the actual system.

Application and duty

Steam pressure reduction and control in a station engineered for the actual load

TECHNICAL REFERENCE

Selection summary

Steam trapping, pressure reduction, moisture separation and condensate recovery

Condensate load, operating pressure, back pressure, process-control method and venting requirements drive steam-equipment selection.
