Un élément élastique (24) est en prise avec un piston (18) réducteur de pression comportant un chemin d'écoulement traversant (22) formé par une aiguille (20). L'aiguille (20) coopère avec une assise mobile (16). La pression de sortie agit sur le piston (18) dans le sens opposé au ressort (24) afin de pousser le chemin (22) contre l'assise (16) afin de réduire l'écoulement de gaz à travers le chemin (22). Des moyens de réglage de pression comprennent un actionneur électrique (32), de type moteur pas-à-pas, qui déplace l'assise (16) le long de la direction de déplacement du piston (18) afin de régler la pression de sortie préétablie.
