Armaş “PC” model pump control valve is a control valve designed for putting booster type pumps into/out of service automatically which is used water network elevating lines. When start button is pressed, pump control valve is opened by itself slowly in comparison with booster pump until pump rotation will reach working rotation. When “stop” button is pressed, control valve is closed slowly without causing surge in the first plan. When pump control valve was closed as fully sealed, it is disengaged from system by means of “Limit Switch” on it. In situations like energy interruption, works as a check valve to prevent back-flow to pump and eliminates use of an extra check valve in the system.
The valve will be direct diaphragm closing automatic hydraulic control valve which works with line pressure. No wearable parts such as stem, bearing and seat exist in main valve body. The valve position will be controlled by a hand operated selector valve.
Valve size same as main line or one size smaller. Maximum flow speed for continuous operation 5.5 m/sec (18 ft/sec)
