pressure reducer is a valve that automatically reduces and stabilizes the pressure behind itself despite changes in the supply pressure.

What does pressure reducer mean in practice?

The valve maintains a lower pressure behind it within capacity limits, responding to changes in supply and draw pressure.

When does it matter?

Too small a reducer causes flow drops, and a damaged seat may allow pressure increases during standstill.

Which solutions are related to it?

A pre-filter and a pressure gauge are installed after the reducer and the diameter is selected based on the flow characteristics, not only the thread.
