Material Specifications
| Body | Bronze (small sizes) / Cast Iron (large sizes) |
| Diaphragm | Stainless Steel |
| Seat | Stainless Steel |
Technical Specifications
| Service | Steam, Water, Other Liquids & Gases |

Operating Principles
Downstream pressure acts on a spring-loaded diaphragm to modulate the valve position. As downstream pressure increases, the valve closes proportionally to maintain the set pressure. As demand increases and downstream pressure drops, the valve opens to supply more flow.
