BKV Valve - Model GF16YMP -Booster Pump Control Valve

BKV 116 Series Pump Control Valves are designed lo automatically start or stop booster {horizontal shaft) pumps used in water supply systems. They are active check valves that open or close completely in response to electrical signals. From the moment the pump`s start button is pressed until the pump reaches its operating speed, the pump control valve opens more slowly than the pump. When the pump`s stop button is pressed, the pump control valve first begins to close slowly without creating a shock, and then, when the valve is fully closed, the pump is switched off by the limit switch on the valve. In the event of a power failure, the pump control valve acts as an active check valve to prevent backflow to the pump, eliminating the need for an additional check valve in the system.
