Geoff
have you had any luck with Pratt et al? On thursday I have agreed , in a moment of weakness, to design and spec the hydraulics (oil) for a sluice gate at a hydro station (one of my little specialities) probably in your country. I will check out the current state of play with letdown valves. Am quite keen to design one, with your help, if vendor prices are silly, as they often are.Keep in touch.
Cheers
Steve

I promised you picture of a double bellows unit in a thermoplastic
application.
I would have preferred a longer leg length but it does take up the thermal
expansion in a long run of ABS.
