Designed for clean, filtered or strained, non-abrasive liquid service: oils, lubricants, greases, solvents, and most non-fluorinated chemicals compatible with Teflon PTFE seals. Valve is piston-operated, metal-seated without any elastomers. Do not use for extended shutoff service or for extremely low flows (less than approximeately 5% of maximum capacity). Values below the low limit of the spring ranges shown below can be achieved if the flow rates are substantially higher than the minimum 5% of maximum rated capacity. To be on the safe side, a relief or bypass valve should always be installed on the outlet side of the regulator (not included with valve). For outlet pressures below the ranges stated below, request model PRH09 double piston model, that is specifically designed to handle the lower outlet pressures that the PRH04 cannot handle. Do not use with liquids that tend to crystallize or solidify under operating conditions. Not for use on steam service as operating temperatures can easily exceed the limitations of the Teflon seals which are rated for 400 Deg F max. Consult factory for steam & gas service. The balanced piston design of this model accommodates large variations in inlet pressure. When ordered, if a set pressure is not specified, valves are set to the minimum pressure setting for the range selected. Valve can operate in any orientation: vertical, horizontal, etc. A high-pressure filter or strainer, which should be no coarser than #60 mesh, can be ordered from Stra-Val. See model SBS-10.

We now offer some models that meet NACE MR0175. These are not priced on line. Consult factory.

Reduced trim for low-flow applications, all sizes.
Locking cap to enclose adjusting screw (1).
Wetted materials (7,10) in type 316SS, Monel, titanium, and Hastelloy.
Upgrade non-wetted spring chamber (2), spring hardware (3,5), and adjusting screw (1) to 300 series stainless steel.
Hard-chromed piston (7) for longer life and seal (9) wear.
1/4" NPT inlet and outlet pressure gauge connection. Generally not recommended if accuracy is required due to turbulent location in flow stream.
Custom materials for special applications where PTFE seals (9) may not be suitable.

Pressure-containing parts made from solid bar stock materials — unlike castings which have wall thickness variations.
Body and trim: Hastelloy C276, Monel, Titanium, Alloy 20
Teflon PTFE V packing seals: High-pressure, low-friction, self-expanding design permits operation with small differences between inlet and outlet pressures as low as 50-75 PSI (approx), as long as the packing nut is not overtightened and piston surfaces are kept clean.
Spring chamber and adjusting spring: These parts are non-wetted, are not in contact with the fluid or gas, and are normally offered in stainless steel. When these parts are submerged or located in a corrosive atmosphere, they can be upgraded.
Standard porting: Right-angle porting, NPT threads (side inlet, bottom outlet). Valve works in any orientation, upright as illustrated, horizontal, etc. See also flanged model PRH-04-FLG.
Optional porting: Side outlet (parallel port), or in-line porting can be supplied at additional cost when requested.
Other options: Reduced trim for low-flow applications, locking cap, inlet or outlet pressure gauge ports, Teflon or Viton seats for inlet pressures below 3000 psig (20 barg), 1/2 and 3/4" sizes only. Pressures are derated for larger sizes.

This valve operates with a compression spring acting on the main valve which is used to adjust the outlet pressure with an adjusting screw. The reduced outlet pressure is very easily adjusted in the field. To increase outlet pressure, simply loosen adjusting screw lock nut (2) to increase spring compression by turning the adjusting screw (1) inward. Similarly, to get a lowering in outlet pressure requires a reduction in spring compression by turning the screw outward. A pressure gauge is required on the outlet side of the regulator somewhere in the downstream piping close to the valve, to monitor the result while making the adjustment. An optional 1/4" Npt pressure gauge connection is added, only when ordered. The valve will operate in a vertical orientation as illustrated, horizontal, or any other orientation.
