Pressure reducing valves in the hydraulics industry

Pressure reducing valves bar the maximum allowable pressure in a system preventing any impairment of the component or even explosions

Safety is one of the most fundamental aspects of the working world. In this regard, Gnali Bocia ensures compliance with safety legislation for each of the products it manufactures or sells. A concrete example worthy of attention regards pressure reducing valves, extremely important components that are inserted between the different hydraulic tools responsible for safety.
Gnali Bocia has an exhaustive catalogue of pressure reducing valves for incompressible flows and high pressure reducing valves for compressible flows such as GPL gas. Even though the aim of the two devices is the same, the component design is different, as are the operating conditions.
With regards to pressure reducing valves for compressible fluids like water, the pressure never reaches levels comparable to those of GPL gas. Furthermore a hydraulic system with these types of valves must be dimensioned and designed so as to avoid incurring cavitation, whereby attainment of a minimum pressure leads to the transformation from a liquid state to vapour with the consequent structural problems. Pressure reducing valves are sold by Gnali Bocia in a range of models according to the required use: the model that withstands higher pressures settles at 6 bar.
