The invention relates to a valve module for influencing a fluid supply of a fluidically operated consumer, with a valve housing (4) which defines a valve space (17) with a fluidically communicating connection to an inlet port (18) and an outlet port (19), and also with a valve member (5) which is received movably in the valve space (17) and which is adjustable along a movement axis (21) between a blocking position and a release position, in order to influence a free cross section of flow between the inlet port (18) and the outlet port (19), and with a spring mechanism (20), which is designed to subject the valve member (5) to a predefinable pretensioning force in order to determine a preferred position of the valve member (5) in the valve space (17), characterized in that the spring mechanism (20) is supported, with an end area thereof directed away from the valve member, on a supporting means which can be fixed, within an adjustment range, in a freely selectable position relative to the valve housing (4).
