The Bermad 420 pressure relief valve The Bermad model IR-420 pressure reducing valve is a hydraulically operated control valve. Its primary function is to reduce higher upstream pressure to align with a lower constant downstream pressure.
The Bermad 420 pressure reducing valve can either have two or three-way pilots fitted in order to achieve its purpose within an irrigation system. This article outlines the use of the three-way pilot control, which is often utilised in irrigation applications, such as the cherry orchard pictured below.

APPLICATIONS

  • Pressure reduction in main line pipes from pump stations.
  • Pressure reduction in field valves from regulation to drip, sprinklers or centre pivot irrigators.

FEATURES

  • Hydraulic Pressure Control
    • Line pressure driven
    • Protects downstream systems
  • Advanced Globe Hydro-Efficient Design
    • Unobstructed flow path
    • Single moving part
    • High flow capacity
  • Fully Supported and Balanced Diaphragm
    • Requires low actuation pressure
    • Excellent low-flow regulation performance
    • Progressively restrains valve closing
    • Prevents diaphragm distortion
  • User-Friendly Design
    • Easy pressure setting
    • Simple in-line inspection and service
    • Easy addition of control features

INSTALLATION

  1. Ensure enough space around the valve assembly for future maintenance and adjustments.
  2. Prior to valve installation, flush the pipeline to insure flow of clean fluid through the valve.
  3. For future maintenance, install Isolation gate valves upstream and downstream from Bermad control valve.
  4. Install the valve in the pipeline with the valve flow direction arrow in the actual flow direction.
  5. For best performance, it is recommended to install the valve horizontally and upright.
  6. After installation carefully inspect/correct any damaged accessories, piping, tubing, or fittings.
