Description
Medium-controlled pressure reducers are simple control valves offering
accurate control while being easy to install and maintain. They control
the pressure downstream of the valve without requiring pneumatic or
electrical control elements.
The DM 462 pressure reducing valve is a twin seat
diaphragm-controlled spring-loaded proportional control valve which is
primarily used for hygienic applications in the food processing and
pharmaceutical industries. A PTFE protective foil renders the diaphragm
physiologically safe and steamproof up to 180 °C. The valve does not
require an external pilot line.
This valve is manufactured from deep-drawn stainless steel featuring
excellent corrosion resistance. It contains virtually no dead pockets and is
suitable for use in CIP and SIP systems. The angled design allows
complete draining.
The spring module comprising spring cap, spring, adjusting screw,
diaphragm and internal components, is connected to the valve body only
by means of a clamp ring and two bolts. Changing the diaphragm or the
complete spring assembly for a different control pressure range is
extremely simple and does not call for special tools. The same applies to
servicing and maintenance.
The outlet pressure to be controlled is balanced across the diaphragm by
the force of the valve spring (set pressure). As the outlet pressure rises
above the pressure set using the adjusting screw, the valve cone moves
towards the seat and the volume of medium is reduced. As the outlet
pressure drops the valve control orifice increases; when the pipeline is
depressurised the valve is open. Rotating the adjusting screw clockwise
increases the outlet pressure.
These valves are no shut-off elements ensuring a tight closing of the
valve. In accordance with the VDI/VDE guideline 2174 a leakage rate of
0.5 percent of the constant volume flow is permitted for the valve in
closed position..
