| Surge Relief Valves | |||||
|

In recent years Pumping Systems have become more complex than
ever before. As a result of this complexity, Design Engineers must resort to detailed water hammer and
pressure surge analysis to insure the system will not be damaged, due to negative or positive pressure
surges. Water Hammer, caused by sudden changes in flow, usually the starting and stopping pumps, but
sometimes the opening or closing of a valve. One method, most often used by Engineers to prevent
damage to the system, is to spill the media from the system, thereby, dissipating the pressure surges.
Typically, for this application, APCO can provide two (2) spilling type Surge Relief Valves, Models 3000
and 6500, and the engineering expertise to insure their proper application. At APCO, surge problems are
analyzed from their point of origin, because at this point, they are easiest to control. Immediate availability. Sizes 2" thru 30". |
