Product Advantages

• Sensitive and Accurate Pressure Control
• Easy Adjustment and Maintenance
• Optional Check Feature
• Fully Supported Frictionless Diaphragm

The Cla-Val Model 94-01 Combination Pressure Reducing and Surge Control Valve automatically reduces a higher inlet pressure to a steady lower downstream pressure, regardless of changing flow rate and/or varying inlet pressure. This valve is an accurate, pilot-operated control valve capable of holding downstream pressure to a pre-determined limit. When downstream pressure rapidly exceeds the pressure setting of the pressure reducing control pilot, the surge pilot (CRL-60) will open quickly to prevent a rapid pressure rise downstream.

If a check feature is added, and a pressure reversal occurs, the downstream pressure is admitted in the main valve cover chamber closing the valve to prevent return flow.

*The closing speed control (optional) on this valve should
always be open at least three (3) turns off its seat.

Should the downstream pressure suddenly increase above the setting of the pressure reducing control due to on-off operation of two or more downstream systems, the Surge Control tracks rapidly enough to prevent high pressure surges from entering any of the downstream systems, when any one of the downstream systems is rapidly closed off. The typical combination pressure reducing and surge control valve station uses Model 94-01 to control surges in downstream piping as remote control valves change from one downstream
zone to another. Surge Control is set approximately 10 psi above Pressure Reducing Control to prevent high
pressure surge entering other downstream zones.

Materials

Many factors should be considered in sizing pressure  reducing valves including inlet pressure, outlet pressure and flow rates. For sizing questions or cavitation analysis, consult Cla-Val with system details.

CRD Pressure Reducing Pilot Control

The CRD Pilot is held open by the force of the compression spring above the diaphragm, and closes when the downstream pressure acting on the underside of the diaphragm exceeds the spring setting. The CRD senses downstream pressure directly.

Flow through the control responds to changes in downstream pressure. Turning the adjusting screw clockwise increases the delivery pressure. Turning it counterclockwise decreases the pressure. A resilient disc assures tight shut-off on dead-end service.

See the E-CRD E-heet for more details.

CRL-60 Pressure Relief Pilot Control

The Model CRL-60 is normally held closed by the force of the compression spring above the diaphragm. Control pressure is applied under the diaphragm. When the controlling pressure exceeds the spring setting, the disc is lifted off its seat, permitting flow through the control. When control pressure drops below the spring setting, the spring forces the control back to its normally closed position. The controlling pressure is
applied to the chamber beneath the diaphragm through a sensing port on the CRL-60 body.

See the E-CRL-60 E-Sheet for more details
