Watts 152SS-3-15 1/2 Pressure Reducing Valve, Stainless, NPT

The Watts 152SS-3-15 1/2 is a 1/2" process steam pressure regulator with NPT connections. It reduces inlet pressure of up to 300 psi to an adjustable 3-15 psi downstream. It features a stainless body and a ptfe seat. Rated to 300 psi.

This 1/2 inch stainless steel process steam pressure regulator is designed to offer a highly sensitive response to reduce pressure changes and maintains the fullest possible volume without appreciable reduced pressure drop. It is used successfully on applications such as oil lines, testing fixtures, autoclaves, steam tables, steam irons, single radiators, vulcanizers, sterilizers, and process lines. This valve consists of a stainless steel body construction with NPT threaded female inlet and outlet connections, stainless steel strainer, stainless steel seat, stainless steel diaphragm, PTFE disc, and sensitivity adjustment feature for critical flow with a reduced pressure range of 3 to 15 psi.

Features

• Stainless steel body
• Sensitivity adjustment
• NPT threaded female inlet and outlet connections
• In-line serviceability
• Includes: Strainer

Common Questions

What pressure is it set to out of the box?

The adjustable reduced-pressure range of 152SS-3-15 1/2 is 3 to 15 psi. Verify the outlet setting with a gauge after installation and adjust to your target pressure.

Does it include a strainer?

Yes - 152SS-3-15 1/2 has an integral stainless steel strainer built into the body, so you do not need a separate inline strainer ahead of it. The strainer is removable for cleaning; if the valve starts to lose downstream pressure, pull and rinse the strainer before assuming the seat has failed.

Does it come with a gauge?

No - 152SS-3-15 1/2 has no gauge and no gauge tapping. Set the outlet pressure using a gauge elsewhere on the downstream piping.
