Operation

The spring loaded pneumatic pilot opens when its air supply pressure is removed. This action allows the main valve to open fully, admitting water through the main line. The valve may also be opened by utilizing the manual override ball valve on the bonnet, which allows opening of the main valve regardless of pneumatic pilot position. The valve closes when the air supply pressure to the pneumatic pilot is pressurized again.

Deluge Control Valve Closed

Valve Closed

When line pressure from the valve inlet is applied to the cover chamber, pressuring the diaphragm, the valve is closed drip-tight.

Deluge Control Valve Open

Valve Open

When diaphragm chamber pressure is vented, the valve travels to the full open position.

Deluge Control Valve Modulating

Valve Modulating

The valve is between full open and closed. The valve’s control pilot modulates the pressure in the diaphragm chamber, positioning the valve to control the desired pressure or flow. OCV pilot systems provide accurate control in a wide range of performance requirements.
