¼ Water Pressure Regulator

Description

Water Pressure Regulator

Standard Size: 1/4-inch Quick-Connect (Push-Fit) Inlet/Outlet

Description: A precision-calibrated safety valve that automatically limits incoming water pressure to a consistent, safe level (typically pre-set to 2.8 – 3.5 bar / 40–50 PSI). It acts as a gatekeeper, ensuring that no matter how high the street pressure climbs, your internal filters remain protected.

Uses & Applications:

• Main Feed Line Protection: Installed as the very first component before the first pre-filter in an RO or Ultrafiltration system.

• High-Rise Apartments: Essential in multi-story buildings where gravity-fed or pumped water pressure often exceeds safe residential limits.

• Fridge & Ice Maker Protection: Used to prevent high-pressure bursts in the thin plastic lines feeding modern smart-fridges.

Benefits:

• Burst Prevention: Eliminates the risk of flooded kitchens caused by nighttime pressure spikes (when municipal usage is low and pressure is highest).

• Extended Filter Life: Prevents “compacting” of sediment and carbon filters, allowing them to flow more freely and last longer.

• Silent Operation: Dampens “water hammer” (the banging noise in pipes) caused by dishwasher or washing machine valves snapping shut.

• Tool-Free Setup: Features standard 1/4″ Quick-Connect ports—simply cut your inlet tube and plug it in.

Size & Dimensions:

• Tubing Compatibility: 1/4″ (6.4 mm) OD Polyethylene tubing.

• Pressure Limit: Pre-set to protect domestic housings; limits output to approx. 40–50 PSI.

• Material: High-grade PVC/Polypropylene body with stainless steel internal spring and EPDM seals.
