Yes, there is an adjustable mechanical relief valve in the system that can be adjusted from 0 to 2000psi. So if any overpressure does happen, this valve will open directing flowing to the tank.
I found out that it was my fault, the valve was not rated to take water because it was not...
@IRstuff I have been looking for weeks on google and no luck. All the normally open ones are under 1000psi. Calling every person and company I can, there are normally closed versions that work at those psi's but I could not find any that are normally open above 1000psi. Thanks for the kind words...
Hello. I am looking for a Normally Open Solenoid Valve that is compatible with water, and its operating pressure is at least 1500psi. I am using this for an automated pump system project. The pumps maximum pressure it can output is around 1500psi so I will need a solenoid valve that can...
@waross, the controller is a Nitra NCP2-20-3120N IP transducer, this is being controlled by a click PLC. As I watch the water hammer occur 2 things happen to the output (water output) and input (air input) gauge to the pump. The pressure on the air side drops down to 0 when the pump cycles...
I guess I will need to find out how my pump works exactly, maybe a check valve is damaged because this only happens as everything stays constant (9.5 psi air inlet, 200 psi water outlet, pump cycles, 200 psi goes to 300 psi for half a second before dropping back down). How can the pump spike in...
The problem is there is no valve that I am controlling that is causing this. The water hammer is all caused by the pump mechanically cycling. The Air valve is left open and the transducer is sending a constant psi to the pump, no valves are moving at this point, the pump is just trying to hold...
@SwinnyGG I was thinking about doing this. I just don't understand why this is happening because my other pump system is a manual setup and it has no water hammering at all. Not sure why, but I want to think that I can fix this problem without a arrestor. I am going to add a check valve to the...
I just finished a project at my first internship/co-op that involves making a pump system automated. Basically, the operator will type in the pressure setpoint, and a variety of devices will work together to increase the pump to pressure. The pump I am using is a Haskal 4b-14 pump. I have a...
