Description

Bermad FP 420 Pressure Reducing Valve

The Model FP 420 Pressure Reducing Valve is a hydraulically self-operated, diaphragm actuated control valve that reduces high, unstable upstream pressure to maintain precise stable downstream pressure, regardless of fluctuating demand or varying upstream pressure.

Operations

The BERMAD Model FP 420, pilot operated pressure reducing valve automatically and accurately reduces upstream water pressure to a specific, adjustable value. The FP 420 operates under both flowing and non-flowing (static) conditions.

The Pressure Reducing Pilot senses downstream pressure and modulates the main valve to maintain the constant downstream pressure.

In no-flow static conditions, should the downstream pressure start rising above pilot setting, the pilot closes, shutting the main valve drip-tight maintaining the allowable downstream pressure.
