auxiliary energy
• Frictionless plug stem seal with stainless steel bellows
• Control line kit available for tapping the pressure directly
at the valve body
• Wide set point range and convenient set point adjustment
using a nut
• Exchangeable set point springs and actuator
• Spring-loaded, single-seated valve with upstream and
downstream pressure balancing 1) by a stainless steel
bellows
• Soft-seated plug for strict shut-off requirements
• Low-noise plug (standard)
• All wetted parts free of non-ferrous metal

Versions
Excess pressure valve for controlling the upstream pressure p1
to the adjusted set point. The valve opens when the upstream
pressure rises.

Normally, the valve is installed with the actuator Type 41-73 Universal Pressure Reducing Valve
suspended downwards. Install pipelines hori-
L
zontally with a slight downward slope on both
sides of the valve for drainage of the conden- H2
sate.
– The direction of flow must match the arrow

– Adapt the control line to the conditions on H H
site. The control line is not included in the
scope of delivery. A control line kit is avail-
able for tapping the pressure directly at the
valve body (see “Accessories”).
