Cavitation Control
• Cavitation
is common in applications with high pressure
differentials or high flow rates• Cavitation
damage can be
catastrophic• Automatic Control valves can be
equipped with special trim to prevent cavitation, without
removal of the valve from the pipeline
• Integral cavitation
protection is one of the easiest and most effective
ways to prolong valve life

• Flow meters on each line provide feedback to an electronic valve controller, which modulates the ratio control valve
• A cap flow control valve serves to limit the well maximum output and control startup surges
Application: A combination of
automatic control valves are used to control a
blend ratio from two water sources:
• One treated• One raw

Valve-Based Power Generation
• Provides power by using the pressure drop across a PRV to run a generator
• Compact design easily adapts to small, pre‐ existing vaults or new installations
• No down time due to cloudy days• Applications include powering electronic
control valves, RTUs, monitoring equipment, sump pumps, lighting, and for pressure
management

Flow Meter Alternative
• Alleviates the need for a separate metering device
• Can be retrofitted to existing, installed
automatic control valves
• Takes less space and is less costly than other
metering option
