Can a self-acting control valve be installed in reverse? Question: It should be installed vertically perpendicular to the pipe, with the membrane tip facing upward. Is it possible to install it with the membrane facing downward due to space constraints?
Things like these should be included in the instructions that come with valves, namely the precautions for installing the valves. It is best to install it according to the instructions, or consult with the valve manufacturer for coordination. In principle, it should be possible.
It mainly relies on back pressure and springs, so there’s no major issue
Sure, it’s possible to do it this way; there are plenty of options
For steam pressure regulation, it also needs to be installed in reverse.
