Causes of Pressure Reducing Valve Leakage
Pressure reducing valve leakage is a common fault, usually due to problems such as poor sealing, blocked vent holes, and internal malfunctions. However, the problem can be solved quickly through the correct repair method. It should be reminded that in order to ensure the normal operation of the pressure reducing valve, it is recommended that the pressure reducing valve be maintained and serviced on a regular basis in order to prolong the service life of the pressure reducing valve.
Overview
Causes of pressure reducing valve leakage:
1. The seals of the pressure reducing valve may have poor sealing after long-term operation due to aging or wear, thus leading to air leakage.
2. The internal components of the pressure reducing valve, such as spring and piston, may also be damaged or aging after long-term use, which may lead to pressure reducing valve leakage.
3. If the vent hole of the pressure reducing valve is blocked by dust, impurities and other materials, it will have an impact on the normal operation of the pressure reducing valve, resulting in air leakage.
Repair methods for pressure reducing valve leakage:
1 If the pressure reducing valve leakage is caused by poor sealing, then you can consider replacing the seal to solve the problem. The specific operation can refer to the product manual or ask a professional to replace.
2. If the internal components of the pressure reducing valve such as spring and piston are damaged, you can consider replacing these components. It should be emphasized that the replacement of these components requires a certain degree of professional skills, if you do not have the relevant experience, please try to seek the help of professional maintenance personnel.
3. If the leakage of the pressure reducing valve is caused by the clogging of the vent hole, the problem can be solved by cleaning the vent hole. The specific method is to open the vent hole of the pressure reducing valve, and use water or compressed air to remove the clogged impurities.
