Understanding the Importance of Shut-off Valves in Modern Systems

2. Gate Valves These valves are used primarily for on/off control in high-flow applications. They provide minimal flow resistance when fully open, making them suitable for systems that require controlled flow management.

4. Check Valve While not a traditional shut-off valve, check valves play a crucial role in preventing backflow in a piping system. They automatically close when fluid attempts to flow in the reverse direction, ensuring that systems maintain their integrity.

How Gas Pressure Reducing Valves Work

Pressure reducing regulators find extensive use across many industries. In the gas supply sector, they are crucial in ensuring that natural gas delivered to residential and commercial buildings maintains safe pressure levels, minimizing the risk of appliance malfunction or hazardous situations. In the healthcare industry, these regulators control the pressure of compressed gases used in medical equipment, ensuring patient safety and equipment reliability.

When gas enters the station, it can be at pressures exceeding 1,000 psi. The pressure reducing regulators then step down the pressure to levels that can safely be used in residential or commercial applications—typically around 1 to 60 psi, depending on the requirements of the local gas distribution system.
