MODEL
PRBR
Direct-acting, pressure reducing valve
CAPACITY: 20 L/min. / CAVITY: T-163A
Direct-acting, pressure reducing valves reduce a high primary pressure at the inlet (port 2) to a constant reduced
pressure at port 1. These valves incorporate a damped construction for stable operation allowing the use of high
reduced pressure.

TECHNICAL FEATURES
Note: This valve has no relieving capability. It should not be used in a dead-headed application. If the reduced pressure side of the circuit has very low leakage the
pressure may rise significantly. The pressure rise will vary from valve to valve.
This type of valve, PR*R, is a good replacement for an LP*C as a normally open, restrictive compensating element if a higher pressure drop across an orifice is
needed.
Full reverse flow from reduced pressure (port 1) to inlet (port 2) may cause the main spool to close. If reverse free flow is required in the circuit, consider adding a
separate check valve to the circuit.
All spring ranges are tested for correct operation with 5000 psi (350 bar) inlet pressure.
Suitable for accumulator circuits since the absence of pilot control flow results in reduced secondary circuit leakage.

Direct operated version offers superior dynamic response compared to equivalent pilot operated models.
Pressure at port 3 is directly additive to the valve setting at a 1:1 ratio and should not exceed 5000 psi (350 bar).
Leakage specified in Technical Data is out of port 3 with a supply pressure of 2000 psi (140 bar) and the valve set at mid range. This leakage is directly proportional
to pressure differential and inversely proportional to viscosity expressed in centistokes.
Incorporates the Sun floating style construction to minimize the possibility of internal parts binding due to excessive installation torque and/or cavity/cartridge
machining variations.
