Fire Protection Pressure Relief Valve

750B-4KG1

Description

The Cla-Val Model 750B-4KG1 Pressure Relief Valve is a hydraulically
operated pilot actuated automatic control valve designed specifically to
automatically relieve excess pressure in fire protection pumping systems.
Pilot controlled, it maintains constant system pressure at the
pump discharge within very close limits as demands change. The main
valve consists of a stainless steel body and only one moving part, an
elastomeric liner or control element.

Cla-Val Model 750B-4KG1 will control from no flow, to full open flow, with-
out any chattering or slamming. For this reason, there is never a region
of control instability. There is no slip-type friction because the valve has
no bearings. Cla-Val Model 750B-4KG1 valves have excellent resist-
ance to cavitation with a Cf factor of 0.9.

Pilot controls are fully piped at the factory and the Cla-Val Model 750B-4KG1
is shipped complete, ready for installation.

PENDING

At pump start, the Cla-Val Pressure Relief Valve modulates
to relieve excess pump capacity, maintaining positive sys-
tem pressure at the pump discharge.
When fire demand slows or ceases, the main valve opens,
diverting the entire pump output to discharge, allowing the
fire pump to be stopped without causing surging in the lines.

(Please note that when the Model 750B-4KG1 is to be used
on a continuous duty basis to maintain fire-system pressure,
suitable back pressure must be provided on the valve to pre-
vent cavitation damage. Consult the factory for details.)
