The Model 770-U Flow Control Valve is a hydraulically operated, diaphragm actuated control valve that maintains pre-set maximum flow, regardless of fluctuating demand or varying system pressure.
Product features & benefits
•Line pressure driven – Independent operation
•Hydraulic flow sensor (upstream installation)
oNo moving parts
oNo electronic components
oNo need for flow straightening
•In-line serviceable – Easy maintenance
•Double chamber design
oModerated valve reaction
oProtected diaphragm
•Flexible design – Easy addition of features
•Variety of accessories – Perfect mission matching
•“Y” or angle, wide body – Minimized pressure loss
•Semi-straight flow – Non-turbulent flow
•Stainless Steel raised seat – Cavitation damage resistant
•Obstacle free, full bore – Uncompromising reliability
•V-Port Throttling Plug – Low flow stability
Typical Application
Distribution Networks
System design starts from expected flow range that determines major system components:
Pump stations: Characteristics, location, quantity
Supply lines: Layout, class, size
Reservoirs: Location, volume, head
Significant deviation from designed flow range might disrupt water supply or even damage system components. Appropriate design, placement, and use of the Model 770-U protects the system from excessive flow. When pressure reducing is also required, choosing the Model 772-U, instead of the Model 770-U, completes the solution.
