I. DESCRIPTION
RESPONDS TO SLIGHT PRESSURE CHANGES AT MAIN VALVE INLET. AN INCREASE IN INLET
PRESSURE TENDS TO OPEN CONTROL (2) AND A DECREASE IN INLET PRESSURE TENDS TO CLOSE
CONTROL (2). THIS CAUSES MAIN VALVE COVER PRESSURE TO VARY AND THE MAIN VALVE (1)
FOLLOWS:
THE FORCE OF THE SPRING IN CONTROL (2), CONTROL (2) OPENS.
(b) WHEN FORCE CREATED BY INLET PRESSURE UNDER DIAPHRAGM OF CONTROL (2) EXCEEDS
DIAPHRAGM OF CONTROL (2).
(a) INLET PRESSURE IS DIRECTED THROUGH THE SENSING LINE TO THE ACTUATING
OPENING CYCLE:
CLOSING CYCLE:
(a) WHEN FORCE CREATED BY INLET PRESSURE UNDER DIAPHRAGM OF CONTROL (2) IS LESS
THAN THE FORCE OF THE SPRING IN CONTROL (2), CONTROL (2) CLOSES.
STRAINER & ORIFICE (3) AND THE MAIN VALVE (1) CLOSES.
(b) AS A RESULT, THE MAIN VALVE (1) COVER CHAMBER IS SLOWLY PRESSURIZED THROUGH THE
III. PRESSURE RELIEF CONTROL (2) ADJUSTMENT
(a) REMOVE PLASTIC CAP (TURN COUNTERCLOCKWISE).
(b) LOOSEN ADJUSTING SCREW JAM NUT (TURN COUNTERCLOCKWISE).
(c) TURN ADJUSTING SCREW CLOCKWISE TO INCREASE PRESSURE RELIEF SET POINT
(OR COUNTERCLOCKWISE TO DECREASE SET POINT).
(e) REPLACE PLASTIC CAP.
(d) RE-TIGHTEN JAM NUT.
1. PERIODIC CLEANING OF STRAINER SCREEN IN ITEM (3) & (6) IS RECOMMENDED.
NOTES:
MAIN VALVE (1) CLOSED.
MAINTAINS THE HIGHER PRESSURE IN THE MAIN VALVE (1) COVER CHAMBER KEEPING THE
WHEN COVER PRESSURE IS HIGHER THAN INLET PRESSURE, CHECK VALVE (4) CLOSES. THIS
