Featuring a compact, efficient design, the HP Brand valve provides greater flow capacity and performance than most comparable models. Yet is economically priced. Special features range from a streamlined body that minimizes turbulence and pressure drop to erosion-resistant, hardened stainless steel trim
In the ‘HP Brand’ design, all main valves are single seated and normally closed. Initial pressure exerted on the main valve plug. Assisted by a main spring, forces tight closing. Special valves equipped with cobalt based overlays on trim to maintain premium tightness-guaranteed not to be cut by high velocity flow.
Integrally Mounted pilot saves installation and maintenance time-eliminating conventional “hang-on” pilotseasily installed. Internal ports with fewer field connections reduce the number of joints-consequently reducing potential leak points
All main Valves and pilots are built without stuffing boxes. This means it is just freedom from packing and scoring to minimize maintenance costs and downtime because pack less construction is a major contributor to the dynamic qualities. Pack less construction eliminates leakage of gases to the atmosphere preventing costly loss.
HP Brand designs have great advantages of interchangeability for all pilots on all sizes of main valves. Furthermore, the function of any main valve may be changed simply by substituting one type of pilot for another. E.g., the main valve may be converted from a pressure reducing valve to a back pressure regulator or a differential reducing regulator. The Practical advantage of interchangeable pilots is that a user of a number of HP Make Reducing Valve will find it very desirable to be able to convert the reducing valve from one service to another. The value and usefulness of ‘mark one’ is thereby greatly enhanced
‘HP’Brand valves are destined for high-speed operation. The downstream pressure is transmitted to the sensing diaphragm without delay, through a connection integral with the valve. This results in a feedback that is faster than any other possible method. Hence and minimal inertia and travel of the moving parts, Response time can be in the millisecond range.
Long guiding surfaces are ground to high finish on all moving parts to assure true alignment and stability. High speed is of little advantage unless coupled with stability and here lies a subtle benefit of our ‘HP’ that few have recognized
Five adjusting springs cover reduced pressure of 0.5 bar upto 30 Bar. The springs are designed to give best performance and are color coded for error free selection. Set pressure ranges are changed by simply replacing the adjusting spring without removing the pilot assembly and without any special tools.
The table lists the approximate flow co-efficient (Cv) for Reducing valves. It is recommended that valve sizing is confirmed by HP for this, the following minimum information is necessary

A relay or pilot-operated reducing valve for steam services is shown in figure
In this type of reducing valve the main valve is opened by the action of inlet steam on top of the piston which is supplied via the inlet relay port and pilot valve. The pilot valve itself is controlled by the combined action of reduced pressure under the diaphragm and the adjusting spring above it.
The pilot valve opening (and hence the pressure on top of the piston) is controlled by the combined effect of reduced pressure acting on the underside of the diaphragm via the low pressure port. The pilot valve springand the load exerted on the top of the diaphragm by the adjusting spring. By this means, the slightest variation in reduced pressure affects the opening of the pilot valve and hence the pressure on top of the piston.The main valve opening is thus automatically adjusted by the reduced pressure which is accurately maintained despite variations of inlet pressure and/or capacity.
