• Reducing setpoint is adjustable
The Watts ACV Pressure Reducing Control Valve is designed to automatically reduce a fluctuating higher
upstream pressure to a constant lower downstream pressure regardless of varying flow rates. It is con-
trolled by a normally open, pressure reducing pilot designed to: 1) Open (allowing fluid out of the main
valve cover chamber) when downstream pressure is below the adjustable setpoint, and 2) Close (allowing
fluid to fill the main valve cover chamber) when downstream pressure is above the adjustable setpoint. A
decrease in downstream pressure causes the valve to modulate toward an open position, raising down-
stream pressure. An increase in downstream pressure causes the valve to modulate toward a closed
position, lowering downstream pressure.
