Abstract: A pressure regulating valve includes an inlet, an outlet, an internal cavity, a first regulating window, and a second regulating window. Pressurized fluid enters the valve through the inlet at a first pressure, the fluid flows through the first regulating window into and through the internal cavity, and then the fluid flows out through the outlet at a second pressure which is lower than the first pressure.
