DescriptionHydraulically operated, diaphragm-actuated burst control and pressure reducing valve with two independent functions: at flows below the setpoint it reduces higher upstream pressure to a preset lower downstream pressure regardless of demand or upstream variations; when flow exceeds the setpoint it shuts off drip-tight and locks until manually reset.
Key features & benefits- Anti-cavitation performance for extended valve life
- Wide operating flow range
- Stable and accurate pressure control
- Drip-tight shut-off to prevent uncontrolled leakage
Double-chamber design- Moderated valve reaction for controlled operation
- Protected diaphragm for improved durability
- Optional operation at very low inlet pressures
- Moderated closing curve to minimise hydraulic shock
Design & options- Flexible modular design for easy addition of accessories
- Obstacle-free flow path to reduce wear and clogging
- Optional V-Port throttling plug for stable control at low flows
- Materials selected for potable water and industrial applications
- In-line serviceable design for simplified maintenance
Certifications- Certified to EN-1074
