Model PRV55

Product catalog summary
Basic Information
Type: Self-operated pressure reducing valve with diaphragm
Kv Values: 2, 2.5, and 3.0 [m3/h]·[bar]
Operation: Valve tends to close when outlet pressure increases
Cv Values: 2.3, 2.9, and 3.5 [gpm]·[psi]
Model: PRV55
Temperature Range: -10 to 180ºC [14 to 356ºF]
Connections: Flanged (DIN - ANSI) or Threaded (BSP - NPT)
Ends: RF – RF, NPT, BSP
Inlet Max Pressure: 16 [barg]
Ratings: PN16 (150#)
Outlet Pressure: 0.01-8 [barg]
Sizes: DN15, DN20, and DN25 (1/2”, 3/4”, and 1”)
Suitable for: Steam, compressed air, water, and neutral gases
Materials
The valve is constructed using various materials including stainless steel (AISI 316L, AISI 304L), graphite PTFE, and carbon steel, among others. Specific parts such as the body, seal screw, and seat are made from stainless steel, while gaskets are made from PTFE.
Standard Configurations
DN Sizes: 15, 20, 25
Kv Values: 2.0, 2.5, 3.0 [m3/h]·[bar]
NPS Sizes: 1/2”, 3/4”, 1”
Cv Values: 2.5, 3.0, 3.5 [gpm]·[psi]
Dimensions and weights are provided for both EN and ANSI standards, with specific measurements for height, diameter, and weight.
Operation
The PRV55 valve should be installed in a horizontal pipe, ensuring the fluid flow direction matches the arrow on the valve body. For steam installations, the actuator must be installed in a low position, and a condensating tank is essential for temperatures above 120ºC to protect the diaphragm. A strainer should be installed upstream to protect the seal and diaphragm. An external control line is necessary for liquids above 125ºC and steam, while it is recommended for liquids below 125ºC.
Standard Installations
Typical installations for liquids and neutral gases include components such as check valves, filters, inlet and outlet pressure gauges, pressure reducing valve PRV, and safety valves. The document notes that the information is subject to change and advises users to verify technical data before use.

Model PRV55 – Pressure Reducing Valve OPERATION PRV55 valve should be installed in horizontal pipe and respecting the fluid flow direction must match the arrow on the valve body. Steam installations, the actuator must be installed in low position. Condensating tank is essential when temperatures above 120ºC to protect the diaphragm from overheating. The tank is always placed in the highest point of the pipe. The strainer (item 2) must be installed upstream of the regulator to protect seal and diaphragm and avoid excessive maintenance. Remember to leave enough space to remove and clean it. The...
