GF-PRV-01

Pressure Reducing Valve

Piston-operated pressure reducing valve for water, heating and compressed air branches. Holds the set outlet while the inlet swings. Nickel-plated brass, 25 bar inlet, DN15 to DN50.

Overview

Product Overview

The equipment on a branch was ordered for one inlet pressure, and the main rarely holds that number all day. The GF-PRV-01 keeps the outlet at the set value with a compensated piston against an adjusting spring, so a rise at the inlet closes the seat instead of reaching the fittings downstream. Nickel-plated CW617N body, internals in HPb57-3, inlet to 25 bar, outlet 0.5 to 8 bar, −20 to +120 °C, DN15 to DN50.

Where it goes

Branch lines in building water supply, heating and compressed air systems, and any other non-corrosive liquid service that needs one steady reduced pressure. One valve per branch, flow arrow downstream, ahead of the equipment it protects.

Common questions

How do I choose between DN15 and DN50?

Match the branch pipe size. Female G threads run from ½ inch on DN15 to 2 inch on DN50, and face to face is 70 mm to 120 mm, so the valve takes the same run of pipe. Weight runs 581 g to 2123 g across the range.

Can it be used on compressed air?

Yes. The valve is listed for water, compressed air and other non-corrosive liquids, from −20 to +120 °C. Seals and gaskets are EPDM across the whole range.

What sets the outlet pressure?

An adjusting spring under the top cap, held by a lock nut. Outlet runs 0.5 to 8 bar against an inlet of up to 25 bar. Every internal part is numbered in the parts table, so spares are ordered by position.

Standard body material: brass HPb57-3 (GB/T 5231; Cu 56–58%, Pb 2.5–3.5%).

Surface finish: valve body nickel-plated.

Other grades: HPb59-1 (GB/T 5231), CW617N (CuZn40Pb2; EN 12164 / EN 12165) and CW602N dezincification-resistant brass. All three are available on request and must be stated on the order. We do not substitute a different grade without your written approval.

Minimum order quantity: applies to all four grades.

Lead content: all four are leaded brass. HPb57-3 carries 2.5–3.5% lead, CW617N and CW602N 1.6–2.5%, and HPb59-1 0.8–1.9%. For potable water, confirm the lead-leaching limits of the destination market before ordering.

Material certificate: EN 10204 3.1 on request. The grade stated on the certificate governs.
