Cycle Gard® Constant Pressure Pump Control Valves automatically regulate downstream pressure and provides a constant pressure regardless of the system water flow demand until the demand on the system is no longer required. Depending on the valve model, an internal or external by-pass allows the system pressure to slowly rise under low demand and fill the tank. When the pressure switch setting is reached, the pump shuts off. Cycle Gard® valves prevent the pump from short cycling which allows for a smaller pressure tank
The pressure switch setting is always set higher than the desired regulated system pressure and pressure setting on the Cycle Gard® valve. Once the system requires water flow, the tank will drain, triggering the pressure switch to start the pump and once again enabling the Cycle Gard® valve to supply constant pressure.
Cycle Gard® Constant Pressure Pump Control Valves maintain a constant pressure, prevent the pump from cycling, are hydraulically operated requiring no electricity, reduce the effect of water hammer, extends pump motor life, and allow for reduced tank size. The Cycle Gard® Constant Pressure Pump Control system is more compact and often at lower system installation cost
FLOGUARD SPECS
MAX TEMP: 180°FMAX PRESSURE: 150 PSI
CONSTANT PRESSURE PUMP CONTROL VALVE Reduces rapid pump cycling and maintains a preset system operating pressure independent from low or high flow conditions. Valve body is all stainless steel female NPT connection. The valve supports a hanging load up to 3,400 lbs. and fits in a 4" well casing. Dual purpose 1" female & 1 ¼" male design is rated for 1 - 20 GPM. The full port 1 ¼" female design is rated for 2 - 50 GPM.
PLEASE NOTE: The valve pressure setting must be below the pressure switch-off setting. Consult O&M manual for proper installation.
