Bermad WW-718-03 M5/M5L/M6 Large Metal Hydraulic Electronic Control Valve

The Bermad WW-718-03 M5/M5L/M6 is a high-performance, electronically controlled hydraulic valve designed to provide precise modulation in large-scale water systems. It combines the advantages of an advanced line-pressure-driven, diaphragm-actuated hydraulic control valve with programmable electronic actuation, enabling remote adjustment of valve position and flow characteristics.

In response to signals from a compatible controller, the valve adjusts its opening position based on pre-programmed parameters. The opening and closing speeds are fully adjustable on-site, offering operators enhanced control over system behavior. Constructed with Bermad’s hydrodynamic wide-body globe design and a special open plug, the WW-718-03 delivers superior flow capacity, high resistance to cavitation, and reliable performance under demanding conditions.

The M5, M5L, and M6 versions offer tailored configurations, including double-chamber actuation, large inspection ports, and compatibility with a wide range of control accessories for complete system integration.
