Operation with water flow

When a faucet is opened in the water system, the force of the spring 
becomes greater than that of the diaphragm; the shuttle moves 
downwards opening the valve to the flow of water. The greater the 
demand for water the lower the pressure under the diaphragm with a 
resulting greater flow of water through the valve

.

Operation without water flow

When the faucet is closed, the downstream pressure rises and pushes 
the diaphragm upwards. As a result the shuttle closes the valve to the 
flow of water and maintains the pressure at the pressure setting. The 
slight difference between the force of the diaphragm compared to that 
of the spring causes the valve to remain closed.

Operating principle

Operation of the pressure reducing valve is based on the balance 
between two opposing forces:

1. The force of the spring towards the opening of the valve.

2. The force of the diaphragm towards the closure of the valve.

Construction details

Contoured diaphragm

The diaphragm is designed with a special shape to assure more 

accurate pressure regulation in accordance with downstream 

pressure fluctuations.

This feature also extends the life of the valve, since the diaphragm is 

more resistant to sudden pressure fluctuations and to normal wear.

Non-stick materials

The central support assembly 

(1), containing moving parts, is 

made of plastic material with a 

low adherence coefficient. This 

minimizes the  formation of lime 

scale, a common cause of flow 

inconsistencies.

Stainless steel stem

The stainless steel stem (2)

 

minimizes the harmful affects 

associated with the use of hard 

and aggressive water.

Removable cartridge

The cartridge containing the 
diaphragm, filter, seat and valve 
plug, shuttle and compensating 
piston is a pre-assembled self-
contained unit with a cover, and can 
be removed to facilitate inspection 
and maintenance procedures.

 

The special construction of the 
regulating element does not 
require any modification of the 
pressure setting, which may be left 
unchanged.

Compact dimensions

The “inclined” configuration makes 

the PresCal 

Compact 

533H series 

pressure reducing valves compact 

for easy installation.
