Operation
The Watts ACV Pump Control Valve with Rate-of-Flow Feature is designed to minimize the surges associated
with the starting and stopping of pumps. The valve slowly opens and closes as required to control pumping
related surges, and throttles to maintain a maximum flow rate during the pumping cycle. The pump starts
and stops against a closed valve.
Pump Start Up: When the pump is signaled to start, the 3-Way Solenoid is energized, directing pressure
into the cover chamber of the 3-way Accelerator Pilot. The Accelerator Pilot allows the main valve cover
chamber to be vented downstream, causing the valve to open at a controlled rate, gradually admitting
pumping pressure into the distribution system. The rate of opening is controlled by the adjustable opening
speed control, which restricts the speed of fluid and pressure evacuating the main valve cover chamber.
The valve remains open during the pumping cycle.
Rate-of-Flow Feature: During the pumping cycle, the valve acts as a Rate-of-Flow Control Valve. Throttling
(Flow Control) action is controlled by a normally open, differential control pilot designed to: 1) Open (allowing
fluid out of the main valve cover chamber) when the differential pressure across the orifice plate is below the
adjustable set point, and, 2) Close (allowing fluid to fill the main valve cover chamber through the integral
orifice of the Accelerator Pilot) when the differential pressure across the orifice plate is above the adjustable
set point. A decrease in differential pressure causes the valve to modulate towards an open position,
increasing flow rate. An increase in differential pressure causes the valve to modulate towards a closed
position, decreasing flow rate.
The Orifice Plate Assembly should be installed three to five pipe diameters downstream of the Pump Control
Valve, and field connected with 3/8” minimum copper tubing in accordance with factory piping schematic.
Please specify desired flow rate prior to ordering.
Pump Shutdown: When the pump is signaled to turn off, the 3-Way Solenoid is de-energized, venting the
cover chamber of the 3-way Accelerator Pilot. The Accelerator Pilot allows the main valve cover chamber to
be connected to upstream pressure, causing the valve to close at a controlled rate. The valve slowly begins
to close while the pump continues to operate. The closing rate of the valve is controlled by the adjustable
closing speed control, which restricts the speed of fluid and pressure entering the main valve cover chamber.
When the valve reaches the closed position, the limit switch is actuated, turning the pump off.
Hydraulic Check Feature: When the pump is turned off and downstream pressure is greater than upstream
pressure, downstream pressure is admitted to the main valve cover chamber through a check valve in the
pilot control system, closing the valve, preventing reversal of flow.
Manual Operation: Engaging the Solenoid Manual operator simulates power to the solenoid, manually
opening the main valve. Disengaging the Solenoid Manual operator returns the valve to the closed
position.
