  2. Pressure regulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_regulator

    A back-pressure regulator, back-pressure valve, pressure sustaining valve or pressure sustaining regulator is a control valve that maintains the set pressure at its inlet side by opening to allow flow when the inlet pressure exceeds the set value. It differs from an over-pressure relief valve in that the over-pressure valve is only intended to ...

    Internal parts of a typical globe valve. The body is the main pressure containing structure of the valve and the most easily identified as it forms the mass of the valve. It contains all of the valve's internal parts that will come in contact with the substance being controlled by the valve.

  4. Control valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_valve

    A control valve is a valve used to control fluid flow by varying the size of the flow passage as directed by a signal from a controller. [1] This enables the direct control of flow rate and the consequential control of process quantities such as pressure, temperature, and liquid level. In automatic control terminology, a control valve is termed ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve

    A valve is a device or natural object that regulates, directs or controls the flow of a fluid (gases, liquids, fluidized solids, or slurries) by opening, closing, or partially obstructing various passageways. Valves are technically fittings, but are usually discussed as a separate category. In an open valve, fluid flows in a direction from ...

  6. Diving regulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diving_regulator

    A diving regulator or underwater diving regulator is a pressure regulator that controls the pressure of breathing gas for underwater diving.The most commonly recognised application is to reduce pressurized breathing gas to ambient pressure and deliver it to the diver, but there are also other types of gas pressure regulator used for diving applications.

  7. Flow control valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_control_valve

    The most common final control element in the process control industries is the control valve. The control valve manipulates a flowing fluid, such as gas, steam, water, or chemical compounds, to compensate for the load disturbance and keep the regulated process variable as close as possible to the desired set point.
