Pressure Management Valve
Built by Flow Dynamics
The Problems:
1) The volume of air in the water distribution system changes with the fluctuations of customer demand.
2) Water meters are tuned to track total volume (GPM), so air and water are measured equally, causing higher costs for end users.
3) City water pressure also fluctuates, which can cause “over-spin” in meters, increasing pressure in customer water systems.
4) Typical water fixtures are designed for 65 PSI. Municipality delivered pressures are often higher, which can degrade equipment.
The Product:
1 - Pressure Management Savings: maintains upstream pressure, reducing the volume of incoming air being measured, thereby lowering water bills without lowering actual water consumption.
2 - Reduced Consumption Savings: precisely controls the pressure after the valve, reducing water consumption for non-volumetric uses.
3 - Flow Stabilization: Manually adjusts water flow to protect your systems from damaging surges.
4 - Pressure Management Redundancy: works as a back-up for pressure reducers, providing extra protection against system pressure surges.
The Competitive Advantage:
The Smart Valve is a patented technology that provides the exclusive ability to adjust pressure in the water line externally. This means no shutdowns are needed for pressure adjustments. Competitive products are installed inside the pipe and require water line shutdowns and spring replacements for any pressure adjustments.
