Description
Pressure Reducing Valves (PRV – Pilot / Direct Acting) – Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania
Product Description
Pressure Reducing Valves automatically lower and stabilize outlet pressure to a preset value. Direct-acting PRVs respond quickly and suit small to medium systems, while pilot-operated PRVs offer precise control and handle higher flow rates and pressure variations.
At Opal Industrial Solutions, we supply PRVs widely used in water distribution networks, commercial buildings, and industrial plants across East Africa. These valves improve system efficiency, extend equipment life, and enhance operational safety.
