GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Figure 1 3RV General Arrangement
The Direct Acting Pressure Reducing 3RV(B) are seawater resistant valves for reducing of the
pressure in hydraulic systems. The valves have the following characteristics:
Delivered with threaded connections, or for gasket mounting to a sub plate or valve
unit.
Two adjustable pressure ranges are available.
Delivered with flow capacity up to 300 l/min.
The valves can be delivered with flange for panel mounting.
For more details about types and options, please refer to section ’Modular Code’.

INSTALLATION
The Direct Acting Pressure Reducing Valves 3RV are installed to the pipeline with threaded
connections and mounted to a bracket or similar with 2 off screws. The 3RVB valves are
installed with 4 off screws to a SUB plate or valve unit. Please refer to section ‘Interfaces’ for
details about connections and screws.
OPERATION
Pressure adjustment
Install a pressure gauge to connection M on the valve, and turn the hexagon screw or hand
wheel until requested pressure is achieved. A cap nut protect the hexagon screw/spindle.
Clockwise rotation increase pressure.
Counter clockwise rotation decrease pressure setting.
MAINTENANCE
Check the valve for proper function. Visually check the valve and if required, paint unpainted
(damaged) areas.
STORAGE
If storage longer than 6 months is expected, the valve must be kept in a dry room, free from
dust and protected against sudden large temperature variations. For storage longer than 12
months, the valve must be filled with inhibition oil. Before use check all visible seals and
flush with clean oil.
MARKING
Inlets and outlets are marked, refer to figure in section ‘General Description’.
