OverviewPressure relief/sustaining hydraulically operated control valve that can fulfill either of two separate functions: When installed in-line, it sustains a minimum pre-set upstream (back) pressure regardless of fluctuating flow or varying downstream pressure. When installed as a branched-from-the-line circulation valve it relieves excessive line pressure when above the maximum pre-set.
Features & Benefits- Excellent anti-cavitation properties
- Wide flow range
- High stability and accuracy
- Drip-tight sealing
Double chamber design- Moderated valve reaction
- Protected diaphragm
- Optional operation in very low pressure
- Moderated closing curve
Additional design highlights- Flexible design allowing easy addition of features
- Obstacle-free flow pass
- V-Port throttling plug (optional) — very stable at low flow
- High quality materials
- In-line serviceable for easy maintenance
- Unit can be supplied with actuator options and position indication/limit switch/position transmitter options
Certifications- Certified to functional and drinking water standards: EN-1074
