Pressure reduction

Pressure reduction - garden irrigation

Pressure reduction means the reduction of pressure in an irrigation system. It reduces the water pressure that is applied to run a drip pipe or a micro-irrigation system. Our pressure reducers are available in a variety of sizes and pressure ratings and can be used with all valve types.

Pressure reduction in irrigation


If you want to water your garden optimally, pressure reduction is a crucial factor in ensuring that the irrigation system works efficiently and saves water. In this article, you'll learn what pressure reduction is, how it works and the benefits it offers. We'll also show you how compression fittings can be used in PE pipe to install pressure reduction.

What is pressure reduction? What is the purpose and which components are used?

Pressure reduction is the reduction of water pressure in an irrigation system. This can be done using a pressure reducer, a type of valve that lowers the water pressure (upstream pressure) by regulating the flow of water through the system. Pressure reducers are often used in conjunction with other types of valves, such as a backflow prevention valve, to further regulate the flow of water and protect the system from damage.


How does pressure reduction work? How does a pressure reducer work?

Pressure reduction works by regulating the flow of water through the irrigation system. This is done by restricting the flow of water by means of a valve that regulates the pressure within the system. This pressure reducing valve is usually located at the point where the water enters the irrigation system, e.g. at a garden hose fitting.

The advantages of pressure reduction - variants of pressure reducers

Pressure reduction offers a number of benefits to both the homeowner and the environment. Pressure reducers can save up to 30% of water, which not only reduces your energy bill, but also helps to conserve this valuable natural resource. In addition, pressure reducers can extend the life of your irrigation system by protecting it from damage that can be caused by high outlet pressure.

PE pipes for pressure reduction - pressure fittings on the input and output side

PE pipes are the ideal place in which to use pressure reducers. PE pipes are made from polyethylene, a strong and durable material that is resistant to crushing and abrasion. In addition, PE pipes are flexible, making them easy to lay and connect even in places that are difficult to access. Pressure reducing valves can be integrated into a PE pipe with fittings (pressure fittings with male thread). This way, the reducing valve is installed via threaded couplings.

If you are looking for a way to reduce the water pressure in your irrigation system, you should consider using a pressure reducer. For more information on pressure reduction and how it can benefit your home or business, contact your irrigation experts at DVS Beregnung today.
