Product overviewThe BERMAD Pressure Reducing Valve with hydraulic control is a hydraulically operated, diaphragm-actuated control valve that reduces higher upstream pressure to a lower constant downstream pressure and opens fully upon line pressure drop. It opens or shuts in response to a remote pressure command.
Features & benefits- Line pressure driven, hydraulically controlled
- Protects downstream systems
- Opens fully upon line pressure drop
- Engineered composite valve with industrial grade design
- Adaptable on-site to a wide range of end connections
- Articulated flange connections that eliminate line bending and hydraulic stresses
- Highly durable, chemical and cavitation resistant
- hYflow 'Y' valve body with 'Look Through' design
- Ultra-high flow capacity at low pressure loss
- Unitized 'Flexible Super Travel' (FST) diaphragm and guided plug
- Accurate and stable regulation with smooth closing
- Requires low actuation pressure
- Prevents diaphragm erosion and distortion
- Simple in-line inspection and service
Typical applications- Automated irrigation systems
- Pressure reducing systems
- Systems subject to varying supply pressure
- Distribution centers
- Energy saving irrigation systems
Additional features- M : Flow Stem (exclude sizes 4"L, 6"R)
