Product detailed description
The DRV250-114 pressure reducing valve reduces the pressure of water, compressed air or a neutral gas from an industrial network – up to 25 bar – to an adjustable 0.2 to 2 bar and keeps it constant. It is a diaphragm valve made of gunmetal with a pressure gauge included.
It belongs to the series of DRV pressure reducing valves by the manufacturer Berluto – DRV 250 is the low-pressure version. The valve is for industrial networks: it is not approved for drinking water and is not for steam or flammable gases.

How much the valve lets through
A kvs value of 4.2 m³/h means that 70 l/min of water flows through the fully open valve at a pressure drop of 1 bar. At a different pressure drop Δp, Q = kvs × √Δp applies – at a pressure drop of 4 bar, this is about 140 l/min. For water, the manufacturer assumes lower flow rates; choose with a reserve.
The manufacturer does not specify a flow rate for compressed air – the kvs value is given for water. You will find a formula for an approximate conversion to air in the questions in the category of DRV pressure reducing valves; during control, the actual flow rate is lower than with a fully open valve.
Dimensions
Length between the connection faces 104 mm, pipe axis 61 mm above the base, overall height including the adjusting head 329 mm.
Installation and adjustment
- connect the valve according to the arrow on the body; any mounting position is possible, the manufacturer recommends vertical
- flush or blow out the pipework before installation – dirt will damage the valve seat
- you can move the pressure gauge to the other side of the body – the G 1/4" connection is on both sides
- set the pressure with the adjusting head while a small amount is being drawn off, then check it on the pressure gauge
- the internal parts are replaceable – for worn seals, there is a seal kit for each version and size

How to choose a Berluto pressure reducing valve
1. Outlet pressure
Up to 2 bar DRV 250, up to 8 bar DRV 200, up to 20 bar DRV 225.
2. Inlet pressure
DRV 200 and 250 withstand 25 bar, DRV 225 40 bar. The inlet must be at least 1 bar higher than the outlet.
3. Flow rate
Choose the size according to the kvs value: water Q = kvs × √Δp. For air, there is an approximate formula in the category.
4. Installation
According to the arrow on the body, preferably vertical. The pressure gauge can be moved to the other side of the body.
