OverviewHydraulically operated, piston-actuated pump control valve with active check that opens fully or shuts off on electric signal. The valve isolates the pump from the pipeline during pump start-up and shutdown to prevent surge events. Designed for high-pressure waterworks service with line-pressure-driven independent operation. Includes opening/closing speed controls and limit switch.
Features & Benefits- Robust piston-actuated design – suitable for high-pressure service
- Line-pressure driven – independent operation from external power for basic functions
- Elegant simplicity
- Cost-effective configuration
- Simple to maintain
- Minimal external accessories
- In-line serviceable – enables quick maintenance without system dismantling
- Double-chamber actuator
- Moderated valve reaction
- Controlled closing curve to reduce transients
- Flexible design – easy addition of options and accessories
- Semi-straight flow path – minimizes turbulence
- Stainless-steel raised seat – resistant to cavitation damage
- Obstacle-free full bore – ensures reliable flow and access
- Optional V-Port throttling plug – stable control at low flow rates
Typical Applications- Pumping stations – controls pump start-up and shut-down and protects pipelines from surge
