A system for adjusting pressure of a gas includes: a first shutter unit for causing a pressure drop in the gas, from a supply pressure to a delivery pressure; a pilot unit for providing a pilot pressure depending on the difference between the delivery pressure and a predefined setting pressure; a first drive unit operated by the pilot pressure to reduce the opening of the first shutter unit when the delivery pressure exceeds the setting pressure, and vice versa; a second shutter unit in series with the first shutter unit can assume a closed configuration; a second drive unit operated by the pilot pressure to reduce the opening of the second shutter unit when the delivery pressure exceeds the setting pressure, and vice versa. When the first shutter unit is open the opening of the second shutter unit causes a pressure drop smaller than the pressure drop by the first shutter unit.

Two-stage intake and two-stage discharge structure of electrically controlled proportional valve

A two-stage intake and two-stage discharge structure of an electrically controlled proportional valve includes a depressurization chamber, which is connected with a guide hole passage, a sensing passage, and a discharge passage. The depressurization chamber is provided therein with a primary diaphragm that drives causes a straight rod having a primary entry opening and a secondary entry opening to move. Through detection conducted in the sensing passage, when the pressure is excessively low, the primary diaphragm moves the straight rod downward to carry out a first stage adjustment, in which the discharge electromagnetic valve is operable to adjust the secondary side pressure for control of depressurization. When the primary diaphragm moves the straight rod further downward to carry out a second stage of pressure output, the secondary entry opening is open to enable a large amount of pressure output.

PRESSURE REDUCING VALVE WITH SHUT OFF

A pressure reducing valve (IOO) includes a displaceable throttling element (51) displaceable between a fully-open position in which fluid flows along a flow path from an inlet (11) to an outlet (45), and a closed position in which the flow path is blocked. A spring (6) acts to displace the displaceable throttling element to the fully-open position while pressure within a control chamber (54) acts on a pressure-actuated surface to displace the displaceable throttling element towards the closed position. A switchable hydraulic control circuit in fluid connection with the inlet, the outlet and the control chamber, is switchable between first state in which a pressure within the control chamber is equalized with the outlet pressure, and a second state in which the pressure within the control chamber is equalized with an inlet pressure.
