Self-regulating pressure reducing valve for purge gas service

Self-regulating pressure reducing valve for purge gas service

Self-regulating pressure reducing valve engineered for purge gas service. Driven by the medium itself, its diaphragm-and-spring mechanism requires no external air, power, or controller — automatically reducing a 2.5 bar inlet to a stable 0.5 bar outlet for low-pressure purge and displacement systems. The body is ASTM A216 WCB cast steel, with 316 stainless steel seats, springs, and diaphragm cover plus PTFE disc, diaphragm, and gasket for corrosion resistance. Flanged with raised-face (RF) connections for easy installation, it accepts approved equivalents.

Self operated pressure regulating valve

 

 

1. Self-Regulating, No External Power — Line pressure drives the diaphragm-and-spring mechanism, modulating the valve disc opening continuously to hold downstream pressure — no air, electricity or external controller needed.

2. Built for Purge Gas Service — Sized and trimmed for purge gas applications, covering the typical low-differential 2.5 bar inlet / 0.5 bar outlet combination for purge and displacement systems.

3. Corrosion-Resistant Trim — 316 stainless steel inner seat, main spring, diaphragm cover and washer, with PTFE valve disc, gasket and diaphragm for dependable sealing and media compatibility.

4. Flanged, Standard Connection — 3-inch (DN80) flanged connection with raised-face (RF) sealing surface simplifies installation, in-service replacement and equivalent selection.


  • Purge & Displacement Systems
    Used for stable low-pressure gas supply in pipe purging, vessel inerting, and system displacement before start-up or maintenance. The self-operated design automatically reduces the 2.5 bar inlet to a steady 0.5 bar outlet without external power, keeping downstream pressure constant during continuous purge duty.

    Operating Conditions: Purge gas media, inlet 2.5 bar / outlet 0.5 bar (set), 3" (DN80), ASTM A216 WCB body with 316 SS and PTFE trim, flanged raised-face (RF) connection, no air or power supply required.

  • Inert Gas Blanketing & Vapor Space Control
    Applied to blanketing tanks, reactors and storage vessels with inert purge gas to maintain a stable low-pressure vapor space. The diaphragm-and-spring mechanism modulates automatically, preventing over-pressurization while holding the required 0.5 bar outlet pressure.

    Operating Conditions: Inert / purge gas service, inlet 2.5 bar, outlet 0.5 bar, corrosion-resistant 316 SS and PTFE internals, flanged RF ANSI 150 connection (catalog reference PN25 — confirm before purchase), suitable for unmanned continuous operation.

  • Analyzer & Instrument Gas Supply
    Provides a clean, stable low-pressure gas source for analyzers, sampling systems and instrument purge lines. Reliable closed-loop regulation ensures the 0.5 bar supply remains constant regardless of upstream fluctuations.

    Operating Conditions: Purge gas media, inlet 2.5 bar / outlet 0.5 bar (set), PTFE diaphragm, disc and gasket for clean sealing, WCB body, flanged RF connection, reference hydro test 15.0–16.0 kgf/cm²(g), judgment GOOD.

  • Pipeline, Vessel & Equipment Purging
    Used for pre-commissioning and post-maintenance purging of gas pipelines, exchangers and process equipment. The self-regulating valve delivers a constant low-pressure purge flow, simplifying operation and reducing gas consumption.

    Operating Conditions: Purge gas service, 2.5 bar inlet reduced to 0.5 bar outlet, 3" DN80 flanged installation, ASTM A216 WCB body, 316 stainless steel seat and spring with PTFE sealing, no external controller needed.

  • Low-Pressure Gas Distribution Networks
    Installed at the supply point of low-pressure gas distribution systems to protect downstream equipment from pressure surges. Its simple self-acting construction ensures dependable pressure reduction and easy maintenance in field networks.

    Operating Conditions: Gas distribution duty, inlet 2.5 bar / outlet 0.5 bar, flanged raised-face connection, WCB body with 316 SS and PTFE trim, nominal dimensions L 290 / G 250 / H 340 / OD 400 mm, reference drawing ANC-L08-F-0070 Rev.1 Sheet 7/14.

  • Petrochemical & Industrial Utility Gas
    Serves as a utility-grade pressure reducing valve in petrochemical plants and industrial facilities requiring a stable 0.5 bar purge gas supply. Approved equivalents are accepted, provided they demonstrate equivalent quality, function, materials and installation compatibility.

    Operating Conditions: Purge / utility gas media, 2.5 bar inlet to 0.5 bar outlet, WCB cast steel body, 316 SS and PTFE internals, flanged RF ANSI 150 reference (PN25 in catalog), reference manufacturer VALMAC / SEOJEON VALMAC or approved equivalent.

High Pressure Regulator Control Valve
High Precision GKV51PR Regulator Control Valve For Industry

The Regulator Control Valve GKV51PR can automatically reduce the high inlet pressure to a stable low outlet pressure, regardless of changes in flow rate or inlet pressure. It uses a precise pressure regulator to maintain the outlet pressure within a pre-set range. When the outlet pressure exceeds the setting pressure of the relief valve, the valve body and the regulator will automatically close, creating a tight seal. If the optional check feature is selected, the valve will close when reverse pressure is generated, preventing the return of liquid by allowing the return liquid to enter the chamber and trigger the closure.
