The Model 757-66-U Level and Flow Control Valve with Bi-Level Vertical Float is a hydraulically operated, diaphragm actuated control valve that controls reservoir filling. The valve hydraulically opens at pre-set low level and shuts off at pre-set high level. During filling, it limits the flow to preset maximum, regardless of fluctuating upstream pressure or reservoir level.

TYPICAL PRODUCT APPLICATIONS
Typical Applications
Gravity Fed Lines
Alternative solutions to accommodate the obvious pressure reducing requirements associated with high elevation differential pipelines are:
Pressure-reducing valves in series (see BERMAD’s publication: Proportional Pressure Reducing Valve, Model 720-PD)
Sequential pressure breaking reservoirs
Where pressure breaking reservoirs already exist or are specified, some issues to consider are:
Pipeline problems associated with line emptying and filling
Valve cavitation damage
Reservoir high pressure flow jets
The Model 757-66-U is well suited to provide the solutions to these issues.
