Pump Suction Pressure Control Valve
The BERMAD model 43T-PS is an elastomeric, line pressure operated pump suction head control valve, specifically designed for advanced fire protection systems and the latest industry standards.
The 43T-PS is used to control and sustain pump suction pressure at the pump inlet at an adjustable preset minimum value. This ensures a continued pressure supply to systems sharing the same supply line as well as preventing cavitation damage.
Due to exceptional reliability, fail safe opening, fast reaction and low head loss, the 43T-PS is highly suited for fire pump discharge pressure control applications.
As an option the 43T-PS can be fitted with a valve position indicator that can include a limit switch.
