Altitude Valve For One-Way Flow

Product Advantages

  • Accurate and Repeatable Level Control
  • Drip-Tight, Positive Shut-Off
  • Reliable Hydraulic Operation
  • Easily Adjustable Control
  • Completely Automatic Operation

The Cla-Val Model 210-01 Altitude Valve controls the high water level in reservoirs without the need for floats or other devices. It is a non-throttling valve that remains fully open until the shut-off point is reached. This valve is designed for one-way flow only.

This valve is hydraulically operated and pilot controlled. The pilot control operates on the differential in forces between a spring load and the water level in the reservoir. The desired high water level is set by adjusting the spring force. The pilot control measures the reservoir head through a customer supplied sensing line* connected directly to the reservoir.

This valve can also be furnished with auxiliary controls to meet the need for multiple functions, such as: pressure sustaining, pressure reduction, rate of flow control, solenoid override, etc.

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

Typical Applications

Used on reservoirs where the water is withdrawn through a separate line or through a bypass equipped with a check valve. The valve opens to refill the reservoir when the water lowers below the shut-off level. For more information see page 4 or data sheet E-CDS6A.

*Note: The reservoir pressure sensing line should be 3⁄4″ minimum I.D. installed with a 2° slope from the valve to the reservoir to avoid air pockets. Altitude Valve For One-Way Flow
