Pump Valve

Pump control valves are automatic control valves used to minimize surges associated with the starting and stopping of pumps.

What is a Pump Valve?

A pump control valve automatically regulates the pump start-up and shut-down in a time controlled to minimize system hydraulic surges. The pump control valve is electrically interfaced with the pump motor, the Pump Control Valve “opens” and “closes” at an adjustable speed, providing a smooth, predictable transition of pump discharge flow into the system. Several options are available including “Check Feature” preventing backflow.

Why using Pump Valves?

As pioneers in water supply protection and efficiency, our proven water & control management solutions include state-of-the-art hydraulic control valves, air valves and advanced water meters. Whether for bulk water supply systems, water distribution network grids, or waste water pumping stations and delivery lines, we offer robust and reliable solutions that help optimize water usage, maximize energy efficiency, reduce costs, protect water supply and distribution systems, and keep water system downtime to a minimum.

Advantages of Pump Valves

• The valve opening speed is adjustable to pump and system requirements for a smooth increase in pressure.
• The valve closing speed is adjustable, gradually decreasing pressure to the system as the valve closes.
• The valve is interlocked with a pump motor to perform unified pump and valve operations.
• The valve automatically shuts off the pump motor on a loss of pump discharge pressure.
• There are two simple field adjustments; opening speed and closing speed.
