A diaphragm pressure reducer has internally a shutter regulating the fluid passage between an inlet and an outlet; the shutter is pushed to open by a spring which is contrasted by an elastic diaphragm on which the fluid pressure acts to push the shutter to close; the diaphragm is placed between a first chamber in which the pressurized fluid is present that acts on the diaphragm and a second chamber communicating with the outside through an air vent passage; at the air vent passage an elastically deformable element is arranged that normally allows air to flow in the air vent passage, but in the event of rupture of the diaphragm through the thrust of the water pressure is deformed and moves so as to shut the aforesaid air vent passage and prevent water exiting the diaphragm pressure reducer.
