PRODUCT INFORMATION

Pressure Reducing Valve IR-420-54-KX

The Bermad Normally Closed, Pressure Reducing Valve with Hydraulic Control, is a hydraulically operated, diaphragm actuated control valve.

It reduces higher upstream pressure to lower constant downstream pressure regardless of fluctuating demand, and opens fully upon line pressure drop. It is a Normally Closed valve, which opens in response to a remote pressure rise command and shuts in the absence of that command.

APPLICATIONS:

• Computerized Irrigation
• Pressure Reducing Stations
• Systems Subject to Varying Supply Pressure
• Remote and/or Elevated Plots
• Distribution Centers

TECHNICAL DATA

OPERATION

The 3-Way Hydraulic Relay Valve (3W-HRV) hydraulically connects the Pressure Reducing Pilot (PRP) to the Valve Control Chamber. The PRP commands the Valve to throttle closed should Downstream Pressure rise above setting, and to open fully when it drops below setting. The 3W-HRV switches upon pressure drop command, directing line pressure into the control chamber, and thereby causing the main Valve to shut. The 3W-HRV also features local manual closing.
