  2. Pressure regulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_regulator

    Pressure regulator for domestic water supply. Outlet pressure is set with the blue handwheel and shown on the vertical scale. A water pressure regulating valve limits inflow by dynamically changing the valve opening so that when less pressure is on the outside, the valve opens up fully, and too much pressure on the outside causes the valve to shut.

    Pressure regulator or pressure reducing valve (PRV): reduces pressure to a preset level downstream of the valve; Pressure sustaining valve, or back-pressure regulator: maintains pressure at a preset level upstream of the valve; Presta valve, Schrader valve, or Dunlop valve, holds the air inside bicycle tires; Pulse valve, extremely fast pulsing ...

    The devices shown are on steam engines. Power is supplied to the governor from the engine's output shaft by a belt or chain connected to the lower belt wheel. The governor is connected to a throttle valve that regulates the flow of working fluid (steam) supplying the prime mover. As the speed of the prime mover increases, the central spindle of ...

    The fill valve in a toilet water tank is a liquid level-actuated valve. When a high water level is reached, a mechanism shuts the valve which fills the tank. In some valve designs, the pressure of the flow fluid itself or pressure difference of the flow fluid between the ports automatically controls flow through the valve.

    Leslie was purchased in 1989 by Watts Industries, Inc. of Andover, Massachusetts, which made water valves and was trying to increase its share of the valve industry. Leslie's 1988 sales were $33 million, Watts had sales of $181 million. [13] Leslie bought K&M Valve Company in 1995. [14]

  7. 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.
