FESTO PVV-14-B-OD Pressure Regulator | G1/4 Port, 1-12 Bar Range, IP65 Specs

FESTO PVV-14-B-OD pressure regulator specifications. G1/4 pneumatic port, 1-12 bar adjustable range, manual adjustment, IP65 protection. For industrial compressed air and gas systems.

Product Overview

The FESTO PVV-14-B-OD​ is a manual pressure regulator​ from the PVV series, designed for precise pressure control in pneumatic systems. This model features a G1/4 threaded pneumatic port, 1-12 bar adjustable pressure range, and manual screw-type adjustment​ with graduated scale. The "14" designation indicates G1/4 port size, "B" specifies the pressure range configuration, and "OD" denotes the specific variant with manual adjustment and integrated pressure gauge port. This pressure regulator provides stable output pressure regulation for compressed air and inert gas applications, suitable for industrial automation, machinery, and process control systems.

Technical Specifications

Note: Specifications are based on FESTO PVV series technical documentation. The "PVV-14-B-OD" model specifically indicates G1/4 port size, 1-12 bar range, and pressure gauge port configuration. Actual specifications may vary slightly depending on production batch.

Model Number Decoding (PVV-14-B-OD)

• PVV:​ Series designation (PVV pressure regulator series)

• 14:​ Pneumatic port size (14 = G1/4 threaded port)

• B:​ Pressure range configuration (B = 1-12 bar adjustable range)

• OD:​ Variant designation (OD = with pressure gauge port)

Note:​ The "14" designation corresponds to G1/4 port size according to FESTO's nomenclature system. The "B" suffix indicates the specific pressure range configuration (1-12 bar). The "OD" designation typically indicates the presence of a pressure gauge port or specific connection configuration.

Important Technical Notes

1. Pressure Range:​ The adjustable range is 1-12 bar. Do not exceed 14 bar maximum input pressure.

2. Media Compatibility:​ Suitable for compressed air (ISO 8573-1:2010) and inert gases. Verify media compatibility for other fluids.

3. Installation:​ Install with proper orientation (typically vertical mounting recommended). Use appropriate sealing (PTFE tape or sealant) on G1/4 threads.

4. Pressure Gauge:​ The OD variant includes a G1/4 port for pressure gauge installation. Ensure gauge is compatible with pressure range.

5. Setting Adjustment:​ Use appropriate tools for pressure setting adjustment. Lock the setting nut after adjustment to prevent drift.

6. Flow Characteristics:​ Pressure drop may occur at higher flow rates. Ensure downstream flow requirements are within regulator capacity.

7. Maintenance:​ Periodically check for leaks and proper operation. Clean filter if equipped and check for diaphragm wear.

8. Air Quality:​ Use filtered compressed air to extend service life. Lubricated air may require specific maintenance considerations.

Note: For complete installation guidelines, dimensional drawings, and detailed technical data, consult the official FESTO PVV Series Technical Manual. Always verify the exact model number configuration with the manufacturer, as notation variations may occur.
