Description

Bermad IR-470-55-bKU Flow Control Valve

The Bermad Model IR-470-55-bKU is a hydraulically operated, diaphragm actuated control valve that limits system demand to a constant preset maximum flow rate. It either opens or shuts in response to an electric signal.

Applications:

Computerized Irrigation Systems
Line Fill-Up Control Solutions
Multiple Independent Consumer Systems
Systems Subject to Varying Supply Pressure
Remote and/or Elevated Plots
Distribution Centers

Line Pressure Driven, Electrically Controlled On/Off

Limits fill-up rate and consumer over-demand

Advanced Globe Hydro-Efficient Design

Unobstructed flow path
Single moving parts
High flow capacity

Fully Supported & Balanced Diaphragm

Requires low opening and actuation pressure
Excellent low flow regulation performance
Progressively restrains valve closing
Prevents diaphragm distortion

Hydraulic Flow Sensor (upstream installation)

No moving parts
No need for flow straightening

User-Friendly Design

Easy pressure setting
Simple In-Line Inspection and Service

Operations

The Shuttle Valve hydraulically connects the Solenoid or the Flow Pilot to the Valve Control Chamber. Pressure Differential across the Orifice Assembly is in direct proportion to demand. When the solenoid is closed, the FP, continuously sensing, commands the Valve to throttle closed should demand rise above setting.

In response to an electric signal, the solenoid switches, directing line pressure through the shuttle valve into the control chamber, thereby shutting the main Valve. The solenoid also features local manual closing.
