VRT100R-350 | 5100 PSI 1/2 in Regulating Valve Pump Control
- The VRT100R-350 is a high-pressure regulating valve designed for
precise, real-time pressure control at 5,075 PSI (350 bar) in
professional pressure washer systems. - Built for on-the-fly adjustment without shutting down equipment,
this blue-spring regulator maintains a steady working setpoint and
diverts excess flow to bypass to protect pumps, hoses, guns, and
accessories. - Features 1/2 in NPT female inlet and outlet ports for clean
integration into commercial and industrial rigs that demand stable pressure,
fast tuning, and long service life.
What This Means for Your Rig
- Provides consistent ≈5,100 PSI performance across changing tips,
wands, and hose lengths, reducing hunting and pressure drift. - Real-time adjustment lets crews fine-tune pressure for different
nozzles or tasks without stopping the machine or depressurizing the system. - Controlled bypass flow helps limit heat buildup and cavitation risk
in continuous-duty applications. - Reduces operator fatigue by cutting pressure fluctuation, chatter, and hose whip,
while protecting high-value pump components from stress.
Performance Specs VRT100R-350 (Quick Reference)
- Max Pressure: 5,075 PSI (350 bar)
- Flow Capacity: Match to pump GPM for best results
(commercial high-flow class). - Temperature: Up to 194°F (90°C) typical; confirm
seal kit for hot-water and chemical applications. - Connections / Ports:
- Inlet: 1/2 in NPT female
- Outlet: 1/2 in NPT female
- Bypass return: dedicated port (verify thread on your kit)
- Control Type: Pressure regulator that maintains a set pressure and
routes excess flow to bypass. - Spring / Adjustment: Blue spring for high-pressure stability with
tool-assisted fine tuning.
Build & Materials VRT100R-350 (Made to Last)
- Corrosion-resistant body engineered for wet, chemical, and outdoor
environments typical of commercial wash bays and industrial plants. - Precision-machined internals deliver smooth modulation with minimal
pressure oscillation under vibration and frequent cycling. - Metal 1/2 in NPT-female ports support repeatable torque and
leak-resistant sealing with approved thread sealants. - Serviceable wear components make it easy for shop techs and field
crews to maintain performance over the life of the system. - Clear and logical port layout simplifies routing to
gauge tees, hose reels, and bypass return-to-tank lines.
Benefits & Differentiators VRT100R-350 (Why Choose This Model)
- Stable 5,075-PSI setpoint for uniform cleaning results across
different operators and accessories. - On-the-fly pressure adjustment without shutting down equipment,
boosting productivity on multi-step cleaning jobs. - Cooler pump operation by bypassing only excess flow instead of
cycling the entire volume. - US-standard plumbing: 1/2 in NPT-F inlet/outlet integrates easily
into North American systems and fittings. - Reduced operator fatigue thanks to lower pressure chatter, less
hunting, and a more predictable trigger feel. - Predictable maintenance with common, readily available regulator
wear parts.
Industries & Applications
- Industrial pressure washers and plant wash bays
- Commercial facilities and maintenance crews
- Contractor rigs and mobile wash fleets
- Municipal / public works equipment washdown
- Construction and heavy equipment cleaning
- Agriculture and food equipment washdown (with verified chemical and
seal compatibility)
Compatibility & Fit (Mounting / Plumbing / Nozzles)
- Plumbing & orientation: Install downstream of the pump and
upstream of the hose/reel. Route the bypass return to tank or a cooling /
recirculation loop per your system design. - Use thread sealants rated for high-pressure water service and
verify torque on all metal fittings to maintain leak-free operation. - Porting standard: Inlet 1/2 in NPT-F; Outlet 1/2 in NPT-F; dedicated
bypass return port (confirm thread type on your specific kit). - Power pairing: Ideal with triplex pumps operating
up to 5,075 PSI; include thermal relief, inlet filtration, a regulator gauge tee,
and burst-rated hose/wand assemblies. - Nozzle / orifice guidance:
- Size the spray tip orifice to match pump GPM at your target PSI; correct sizing
is critical for steady regulation. - With flow present (trigger open), set the working pressure, then lock the
adjustment per your SOP.
- Size the spray tip orifice to match pump GPM at your target PSI; correct sizing
Setup, Service & Reliability
- Startup: Prime with clean water, purge air, and verify inlet
supply before first start. - Adjustment: Adjust pressure only with the trigger pulled to avoid
false readings and unintended over-pressure. - Inspection: Check inlet screens and strainers regularly; creeping
pressure or chatter can indicate wear, contamination, or mis-sizing. - Preventive service: Maintain on a set schedule using the correct
regulator wear parts for your duty cycle. - Operating limits: Keep temperature, water quality, and chemistry
within manufacturer limits to maximize seal life and efficiency.
What’s Included
- VRT100R-350 regulating valve (blue-spring, high-pressure class).

VRT100R-350 | 5100 PSI 1/2 in Regulating Valve Pump Control
- This is a regulating valve that maintains pressure and bypasses
excess flow; it is not a trapped-pressure unloader. - If your system uses BSPP/BSPT or quick-connects, list any
included adapters on your product page so installers can match threads on the
first visit.
