Domestic Adjustable Pressure Restricting Angle Valves
Application:
•
used when flowing water pressure needs to be controlled
Features:
•
preset orifices restrict the volume of water thereby lowering the pressure of the flowing water;
NFPA requires restricting valves where inlet pressure exceeds 100 PSI
•
restricting valve has no effect on the static pressure of a system
•
can be manually by-passed if required by opening the valve fully, this is accomplished by
breaking the breakable link, which allows the valve stem to rise to the full open position
•
breakable link also serves as an indication of valve condition and status; if valve is opened
without breaking the link it will resume its previous position and no resetting is necessary
•
restricts inlet pressure from 70 PSI up to a maximum of 175 PSI
•
restricts down to outlet pressures of 65, 80 or 100 PSI, outlet pressures may be set below 65
PSI when authorized by the local authority having jurisdiction
•
restricts only under flow conditions
•
setting charts are packed with valve
•

Global Adjustable Pressure Restricting Angle Valves
Application:
•
used when flowing water pressure needs to be controlled
Features:
•
preset orifices restrict the volume of water thereby lowering the pressure of the flowing water;
NFPA requires restricting valves where inlet pressure exceeds 100 PSI
•
restricting valve has no effect on the static pressure of a system
•
restricting device can be manually by passed if required by opening the valve fully: pull the
pin allowing the yoke to fall back from the valve stem which allows valve to be fully opened,
when valve needs to be restricted again, slide the yoke back into place to be NFPA compliant
