Adjustable valve
Abstract:
An adjustable differential pressure control valve has a first housing part with one or more fluid entry openings and one or more fluid exit openings. The valve is provided with a movable throttle member configured for regulating the through flow area of the exit openings in response to a difference in pressure across the throttle member, and a spring arrangement configured for providing a spring force acting on the throttle member in a direction that increases the through flow area of the exit openings. The spring arrangement comprises at least a first and a second spring, and the spring arrangement is adjustable to operate in a low pressure mode with the spring force acting on the throttle member being provided by the first spring only, and to operate in a high pressure mode with the spring force acting on the throttle member being provided by at least both the first and second springs.
