The Model 735-M Surge Anticipating Valve is an off-line, hydraulically operated, diaphragm actuated valve. The valve, sensing line pressure, opens in response to the pressure drop associated with abrupt pump stoppage. The pre-opened valve dissipates the returning high pressure wave, eliminating the surge. The Model 735-M smoothly closes drip tight as quickly as the relief feature allows, while preventing closing surge. The valve also relieves excessive system pressure.

Relieves surge, fail-safe open
Minimal maintenance
Economy of space
Lower investment & maintenance costs
Especially economic for higher pressure ratings
Line pressure driven
Independent operation
No motor required
Long term drip tight sealing
Adjustable hydraulic actuation
Double chamber
Moderated valve closing (no surges)
Protected diaphragm
In-line serviceable – Easy maintenance
Obstacle free, full bore – Uncompromising reliability

In this system, a pump battery supplies the main line through a manifold. The Model 735-M:
Eliminates surge upon power failure
Provides surge free switching between “on-duty” pumps
Closes smoothly according to pilot setting
