Oxford Flow - IP Series - Pressure Reducing Valves (PRVs)
High performance pressure reducing valve (PRV)
Water-type construction for DN50-DN300 (2”-12”) pipework
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The Oxford Flow IP Series is a unique patented range of pilot-controlled, wafer-type pressure reducing valves (PRVs) developed specifically for water applications.
The lightweight polymer construction uses a durable Acetal resin (WRAS & NSF approved) to significantly reduce weight and remove the need for expensive lifting equipment during installation and maintenance.
Wafer-type installation between PN10/PN16 flanges minimises installation footprint and the design eliminates the main diaphragm, using a piston sensed mechanism to maximise reliability and reduce maintenance costs.
The IP Series offers pilot-controlled accuracy and can also be integrated with actuated systems in smart networks to calm and reduce leakage.
APPLICATIONS
Use with confidence on potable water, waste water and process fluids.
