Pressure & Flow Control Applications

Pressure control in a water a distribution system can be accomplished using various methods. There are five main methods of controlling pressure and flow. It is extremely important to get the correct pump, flow and pressure devices in any water delivery system so you have the best efficiency possible to save electricity and maintenance cost while maintaining the correct pressure and water volume to suit your application. The control method is dependant on many things and very application-specific.

When it comes to pressure control, Dowdens Pumping & Water Treatment is the trusted choice. Our advanced range of specialised pressure and flow control pumps and valves is engineered to handle the toughest challenges in different industries while ensuring reliable and efficient operation. With our expertise and dedication to quality, we are your partners in optimising residential, agricultural and industrial water productivity and safety.

The benefits of our range of pressure and flow control pumps & valves

At Dowdens Pumping & Water Treatment, we offer a diverse and advanced range of pressure and flow control pumps and valves. Our specially designed pumps and valves are tailored to meet the specific needs of industries, agriculture, municipalities and residential settings, providing a multitude of benefits:

Optimal system performance — Pressure and flow control pumps play a crucial role in optimising the performance of fluid systems. Whether it's water distribution in municipalities, irrigation in agriculture or process control in industries, these pumps and valves ensure precise and consistent flow rates and pressures, enhancing overall system efficiency.

Water conservation — Effective flow control is vital for water conservation. With our precision-engineered valves, you can regulate the flow of water precisely, reducing wastage and ensuring that the right amount of water is supplied to various applications. This is especially crucial in regions facing water scarcity or for sustainable water management practices.

Energy efficiency — By implementing pressure control pumps and valves, you can regulate system pressure and reduce unnecessary energy consumption. This leads to significant energy savings and lower operational costs, making your systems more environmentally friendly and cost-effective.

Process optimisation — In industrial settings, proper pressure and flow control are essential for optimising manufacturing processes. Our pumps and valves offer reliable and accurate control, ensuring consistent product quality and improved productivity.

Safety and reliability — Pressure control pumps and valves are critical for maintaining safe operating conditions. They help prevent over-pressurisation and potential system failures, safeguarding both equipment and personnel.

Dowdens Designed & Manufactured Pressure Setting Spool Piece

As filtered water flows vertically from the surface the pressure at the mine level can be several thousand kPa. Normal orifice or flow restrictors induce high velocities in a very short space resulting in cavitation & sonic sound which can erode the components & reduce their effect.

Dowdens Engineering Department designed and developed a Pressure Setting Spool sized specifically to meet the specific duty required. The spool was custom designed using engineered fluid mechanics to reduce the pressure before it entered the valve station, taking part of the load off the station. Pipe supports were also engineered to provide a secure installation of the station.
