paineensäätimeltä
Paineensäätimeltä refers to a pressure regulator in Finnish. A pressure regulator is a valve that automatically reduces a higher inlet pressure to a lower, consistent outlet pressure. It achieves this by using a diaphragm or piston that is acted upon by the outlet pressure. When the outlet pressure rises above the set point, it moves the diaphragm or piston, which in turn closes the valve, restricting the flow of the higher-pressure fluid. Conversely, if the outlet pressure drops, the spring force or a counteracting mechanism pushes the diaphragm or piston, opening the valve and allowing more fluid to flow, thus maintaining the desired outlet pressure.
Pressure regulators are crucial components in numerous systems where maintaining a stable and safe pressure is
