Surge Anticipator Valve
Surge Anticipator Valve
African Valve is a dependable Surge Anticipator Valve Manufacturer in Sudan, delivering advanced valves engineered to protect pipelines and pumping systems from sudden pressure surges, commonly known as water hammer. These valves are essential for high-pressure systems where abrupt pump shutdowns or power failures could lead to pipeline rupture or equipment failure.
Function & Working
Surge anticipator valves are normally open, pilot-operated valves installed near pumps. They sense the pressure drop that occurs when a pump trips and rapidly open to relieve excess pressure before a surge forms. Once the surge is mitigated, the valve slowly recloses to prevent system shock, ensuring safe and uninterrupted operation.
