A pressure actuated valve having a diaphragm assembly for receiving any one of a plurality of interchangeable restrictor elements of varying passageway diameter for changing the rate of valve closure and for servicing clogged passageways is disclosed. The valve employs a restrictor element having a selected inlet port diameter with a metering pin slidably mounted therethrough. The diaphragm assembly provides a slidable mounting for the restrictor element to enhance the cleaning action of the metering pin. A method of adjusting the rate of valve closure and servicing clogged or worn restricted inlet ports in such valves is also disclosed.
