This PN16 brass pressure reducing valve features Female × Female threaded connections and a flow-direction arrow marked on the valve body.
The current product images show a brass valve body, upper regulating assembly and capped side connection.
Size, thread standard, pressure range, temperature and testing requirements should be confirmed before quotation.

Pressure Reducing Function
A pressure reducing valve is used to reduce a higher upstream pressure to a controlled downstream pressure according to the operating requirements of the piping system.
Correct selection requires more information than the PN marking alone. Buyers should confirm both the expected inlet pressure and the required downstream pressure range.
Buyer Tip: PN16 identifies the pressure class of the valve, but it does not define the adjustable outlet pressure range. These are separate purchasing parameters.
Technical Buyer Notes
Confirm the Required Pressure Range
A pressure reducing valve should not be selected only by nominal size or PN marking. Buyers should provide the expected inlet pressure and required downstream pressure so the suitable regulator specification can be evaluated.
Confirm the Thread Standard
The current product images clearly show Female × Female threaded connections. However, BSPP, BSPT, NPT or another pipe-thread standard cannot be confirmed from appearance alone.
The required thread standard should therefore be stated directly in the RFQ.
For more information about common pipe-thread systems, see our BSP vs NPT thread guide.
Follow the Flow Direction
A directional arrow is marked on the valve body. Installation should follow the indicated direction of normal system flow.
Installation Note: do not determine the installation direction only from the position of the threaded ends. Follow the flow-direction arrow marked on the valve body.
Side Capped Connection
A capped side connection is visible on the current product images. Its exact function and connection specification are not confirmed by the available product information.
It should therefore not be described as a pressure-gauge port or another specific connection until verified.
Confirm Working Temperature and Medium
PN16 alone does not define the permitted medium or working temperature. Buyers should confirm the actual working medium and operating-temperature range together with the required pressure conditions before ordering.
Application Considerations
Brass pressure reducing valves are used where downstream pressure needs to be controlled within a piping system.
Final product suitability should be evaluated according to the actual operating requirements.
- Maximum inlet pressure
- Required downstream pressure
- Working medium
- Operating temperature
- Required flow capacity
- Nominal connection size
- Thread standard
- Installation conditions

OEM & Purchasing Support
SUNRICH FLOW works with specialized manufacturing partners in Yuhuan, Zhejiang, China, coordinating product specifications, production, quality control, OEM requirements, packaging and shipment for international buyers.
Depending on the final specification, thread, marking, packaging and other purchasing requirements can be evaluated before production.
OEM Note: OEM feasibility depends on the required product specification and should be evaluated before production.
Quality & Order Confirmation
Before bulk production, the agreed purchasing specification should be used as the basis for product inspection and order confirmation.
Depending on the final order requirement, relevant checks may include:
- Correct nominal size
- PN16 body marking
- Female × Female threaded connection
- Required thread dimensions and standard
- Correct flow-direction marking
- Critical overall dimensions
- Pressure-adjustment requirements
- Required outlet-pressure performance
- Functional testing requirements
- Leakage or pressure-test requirements
- Product marking requirements
- Packaging requirements
Quality Note: no specific maximum inlet pressure, outlet-pressure adjustment range, test pressure or testing standard is confirmed by the current product information. These requirements should be agreed before production.
Frequently Asked Questions
What pressure class is this valve?
The valve body is visibly marked PN16.
What type of connection does this valve use?
The current product images show Female × Female threaded connections.
Is the thread BSP or NPT?
The exact thread standard is not confirmed by the available product images. BSPP, BSPT, NPT or another required standard should be specified before quotation.
What is the outlet pressure range?
The outlet-pressure adjustment range is not confirmed in the current product information. Please provide the required downstream pressure when requesting a quotation.
What is the maximum inlet pressure?
No maximum inlet-pressure value is currently confirmed for this model. It should be checked according to the required specification.
What is the side capped connection used for?
A capped side connection is visible in the current product images, but its exact function has not been confirmed.
How should the valve be installed?
The valve body includes a flow-direction arrow. Installation should follow the indicated flow direction together with the final installation requirements.
Does PN16 define the outlet pressure?
No. PN16 is the pressure-class marking. The adjustable downstream pressure range is a separate specification that should be confirmed for the exact valve model.
What information should I provide for a quotation?
Please provide size, thread standard, maximum inlet pressure, required outlet pressure, working temperature, medium and quantity.
