Control Valve

AUTOMATIC CONTROL VALVES

Automatic control valves are special products that use the hydraulic power of the system to enable proportional operation of the line. These valves are manufactured specifically for the demand in the system. There are many types according to the intended use; the most common types are as follows:

• BSOPRV-1 Pressure Reducing Control Valve: Allows the line to operate at a consistently lower pressure by using the water's own hydraulic power with a pilot installed on the product as requested.
• BSOFCV-1 Flow Control Valve: Enables the line to operate at a consistently lower outlet flow rate by using the water's own hydraulic power with an orifice plate and pilot installed at the outlet as requested.
• BSODCV-1 Surge Anticipator Valve: Selected specifically for the location to dampen surges and prevent damage from transient pressures in the system.
• BSOLCV-1 Level Control Valve: Specially designed for tank inlets to allow tanks to operate without overflowing. This product automatically closes with the hydraulic force of the water when the tank is full and starts filling again when the desired level is reached.

In addition to the types specified above, there are many other types of automatic control valves. According to the required operation at the installation site, many optional products can be manufactured. If you inform us of the control method you require, we can offer the most suitable product for you.

Control valves in common use are produced with three different body types: Diaphragm-Actuated F Type, Disc-Actuated G Type, and Disc-Actuated Y Type. All three body types are available in our product range, but selecting the correct product according to the place and purpose of use is important.

There are many selection mistakes in field use of these products:

• F Type: Used where flow regularity is not very important and operation is not continuously active. Frequently preferred in the fire sector.
• Y Type: Used where the inlet-outlet pressure difference is low and stable operation is expected at this low pressure difference. Mostly preferred in the irrigation sector.
• G Type: Used where the inlet-outlet pressure difference is higher and the product can control this high pressure difference very well and stably. Mostly preferred in potable water network systems.

Detailed information and articles about these products are also provided in the blog section. You can visit our website for more information.

The distinction between double-chamber and single-chamber production in control valves is another confusing issue. This design, which started as an innovation by a limited number of manufacturers worldwide, was later found to complicate maintenance and not provide significant benefits, so it was not preferred by other manufacturers. The difference is detailed in the images below.
