This bulletin should be used by experienced personnel as a guide to the installation of the Model GP-2000 Pressure
Reducing Valve. Selection or installation of equipment should always be accompanied by competent technical
assistance. You are encouraged to contact Armstrong International, Inc. or its local sales representative for additional
information.
1. An Armstrong Inverted Bucket Steam Trap is recom-
mended to drain the condensate at the inlet of the
PRV.
2. An Armstrong 100 mesh Y-Strainer should be installed
before the PRV to reduce the chance of dirt fouling.
3. Pressure gauges should be installed before and after
the PRV. The downstream gauge should be installed in
or near the control pipe.
4. Control pipe connections go into ºî tapping on the
side of the pilot valve. Be certain the pipe is pitched
away from the PRV to drain condensate away from
pilot. Erratic control could result if this is not done.
Control pipe length should be a minimum of 10 outlet
pipe diameters from the last tee, elbow or fitting.

5. If a bypass line is needed to allow system operation
while the valve is being serviced then install a quality
globe valve on the bypass line. Leaking valves will
cause system problems.
6. Piping immediately downstream of PRV should be
expanded to accommodate low-pressure expansion
through a PRV. Approximately 6,000 ñ 12,000 FPM
maximum velocity.
7. Install the PRV with diaphragm chamber down and
with flow in the direction of the arrow on the body.
8. Do not install a quick opening or quick closing valve on
the downstream side of the PRV. This can cause
erratic pressure control and cause safety relief valves
to discharge.
