Pressure reducing and sustaining control valve with 24 volt AC solenoid control. This hydraulically operated, diaphragm-actuated control valve sustains minimum preset upstream (back) pressure and reduces downstream pressure to a constant preset maximum. It either opens or shuts in response to an electric signal.
Easily converts to DC power by swapping bolt-on solenoid with a 9-24V DC latching solenoid (sold separately). No replumbing required.

The pressure reducing pilot valve [1] is connected to the valve control chamber [2] via the pressure sustaining pilot valve [3] and the shuttle valve. The pressure sustaining pilot valve closes the valve when the upstream pressure [P1] is lower than the set value. When the upstream pressure [P1] rises above the setting, the pressure sustaining pilot valve is switched to make the pressure reducing pilot valve control the valve to reduce the downstream pressure [P2]. The solenoid valve [4] is switched by electrical signal, the pressure is guided into the shuttle valve. The shuttle valve blocks each pilot valve, the line pressure is transferred the control chamber, and the valve closes.
