Self-acting pressure reducers are simple control valves offering accurate control while being easy to install and maintain. They control the pressure downstream of the valve without requiring pneumatic or electrical control elements.
The DM 613 pressure reducing valve is a diaphragm-controlled spring-loaded and balanced proportional control valve for large volumes. The valve body is made of cast iron, the control mechanism is a welded assembly. The valve cone is fitted with a soft seal (up to 80/130 °C).
The outlet pressure to be controlled is balanced across the control unit by the force of the valve spring (set pressure). As the outlet pressure rises above the pressure set using the adjusting screw, the valve cone moves towards the seat and the volume of medium is reduced. As the outlet pressure drops, the valve control orifice increases; when the pipeline is depressurised, the valve is open. Rotating the adjusting screw clockwise increases the outlet pressure.
The valves requires a sense line (to be installed on-site).
These valves are no shut-off elements ensuring a tight closing of the valve. In accordance with DIN EN 60534-4 and/or ANSI FCI 70-2 they may feature a leakage rate in closed position in compliance with the leakage classes V (soft seal cone = 1.8 x 10-5 x ?p x D* [l/h], *D=seat diameter).
