The PSIval is a hydraulically operated automatic valve that combines the simplicity and reliability of a diaphragm valve with the control capabilities of a pilot operated, self-acting regulator.  The unique design of the PSIval optimizes both flow capacity and control.  The revolutionary body design provides a streamlined flow path and incorporates the multi-functional elliptic diaphragm in an efficient hydrodynamic design.  This design provides superior resistance to cavitation and erosion and insures smooth flow without turbulence or noise.

 

At the heart of the valve lies the unique elliptic diaphragm, which is capable of opening and closing at 6 PSI, as well as normal operation up to 230 PSI.  The valve’s incomparable versatility offers pressure reduction over a wide range of flows.  Other valves have limitations and require special accessories or different diaphragms to achieve optimum results.  PSIvals’s greater range of flows overcomes these restrictions, providing immediate solutions for general water supply and irrigation.

 

One basic valve…one valve spring…one diaphragm…for all applications.  Provides operational flexibility; no need for different diaphragms and springs to meet varying pressures or flow conditions.

 

Consistent performance

  •          Reliable trouble free valve operation; controlled, smooth and accurate closing and   opening at low flows with drip-tight sealing. 

  •          Extremely stable and accurate control during shut-off and regulation; provides versatile rangeability and low flow control.

  •          High flow capacity and very low head loss resulting from the innovatively designed body and flow path.

  •          Positive drip-tight sealing is guaranteed by the elliptical diaphragm’s design and its resilient sealing surface.

  •          Easy inline maintenance is provided by top entry design.

  •          Rugged, high quality construction meets applicable engineering standards.

  •          Proven pressure, flow and level regulation pilots, electric solenoids and control accessories.

 

Valves are used in agricultural, landscape, industrial, mining and wastewater applications.

 

Dependable Control

Design based on simplicity.  Engineered to perform under the most demanding conditions.  Each valve assures a controlled close, which minimizes water hammer and absorbs the pressure shock caused by system shut-off.

High Efficiency-Low Head Loss

The flow path is wide and clear of obstructions for superior hydraulic performance and lower pressure loss.

Pressure Reduction Over A Wide Flow Range

PSIvals are capable of reducing pressures at extremely low flow rates as well as high flow rates due to the multi-functional elliptic diaphragm.  The same diaphragm can open, close, and reduce pressures down to 6 PSI.

Protective Coating

The interior and exterior of the valve are treated with a pliable electrostatic spray polyester coating that will not chip, is rust resistant, and stands up to sun, salt, and other corrosive elements.  The coating process includes pre-treatment blasting, electrostatic spraying of polyester, and oven-heated curing to bond the paint.

Easy Maintenance

The PSIval requires minimal maintenance.  The valve never needs to be removed from the line.  The bonnet is easily removed revealing the diaphragm and spring that may require upkeep.

Hydraulic Accessories

Point Source offers a complete line of multi-purpose pilots and accessories.  By combining PSIvals with precise hydraulic accessories, solutions to both common and more complex valve requirements are readily attained.  The plastic pilot in particular, has new innovative features, not available in similar type products, such as larger passages for quick reaction time and non-breakable directional assembly.

 

All point Source PSIvals are standard 3-way control pilots.  Two-way control is also available upon special request.

Standard valves include Manual, Electric, Pressure Reducing, Pressure Sustaining/Relief, Hydraulic Relay, and Quick Reacting Pressure Relief.

 Additional valve control features include Surge Anticipating-Quick Relief, Pump Control, Two Stage Opening, Float Control, and Check Valve options.
