Advanced Pilot Valve

Advanced pilot valves (APVs) are used in the PRV control solution, which is used to remotely control pressure, or automatically deliver target pressures at a critical point. It operates on all globe type diaphragm actuated pressure reducing valves (PRVs) greater than 50mm.
Features:

  • Linear pressure/position relationship
  • Absolute pressure adjustment
  • Pilot position indicator
  • Selection of mounting options
  • Position feedback to control logger
  • Upstream, downstream and control space connections ⅜” bsp (f)
  • IP68 connector to i2O controller
  • Size (mm): w198 x d149 x h130
  • Weight (kg): 5
  • IP68 continuously submersible to 4m
  • Operational temperature 1°C to +60°C
  • Stainless steel (316) construction
  • WRAS approved

HOW IT WORKS

PRV control has two components: control logger and advanced pilot valve. It is used to remotely control
pressure, or automatically deliver target pressures at a critical point. It operates on all globe type diaphragm actuated pressure reducing valves (PRVs) greater than 50mm.

PART OF THE ADVANCED PRESSURE MANAGEMENT SOLUTION

Advanced pressure management enables you to remotely control and automatically optimise pressure across the entire network – at PRVs and pump stations. Because i2O uses a
dedicated patent protected pilot valve designed specifically for the purpose, target pressures are achieved accurately and smoothly, without introducing transients.

The benefits of this are:

Consistent delivery of target pressure for customers
Reduction in leakage and bursts
Reduction in operating costs
Extended asset life for downstream networks
Reduced energy costs from upstream pumping
ROI is typically achieved in less than 24 months
