TECHINCAL DATA
OPERATION
The BERMAD Model 42T pressure control valve, reduces water pressure automatically and accurately from a high inlet pressure to a lower, preset outlet pressure. The outlet set pressure can be adjusted by way of the pilotadjusting screw. The valve operates under both flow and static conditions. The pressure-reducing pilot valve senses changes in outlet pressure and modulates the control valve to maintain the preset outlet pressure. When outlet pressure rises above the preset pressure , the pilot valve throttles, enabling pressure to accumulate in the control chamber, this causes the control valve to close further and reduce outlet pressure. When outlet pressure falls, the pilot valve opens wider, releasing pressure from the control chamber. This causes the control valve to open wider and increase outlet pressure. An integral restrictor controls the valve’s closing speed.
For valve sizes 12, 14 & 16” an adjustable needle valve is provided.
