Operation
The Model FP-436 is a pilot-controlled valve equipped with an adjustable, 2-way, Differential-Pressure Sustaining Pilot.
The needle valve [1] continuously allows flow from valve inlet into the control-chamber [2]. The pilot [3], locally or
remotely, senses both high pressure below its diaphragm and low pressure above it.
Should differential pressure fall below pilot setting, the pilot throttles, enabling pressure to accumulate in the
control-chamber, causing the main valve to throttle, sustaining differential pressure at the pilot setting.
Should differential pressure rise above pilot setting, the pilot releases accumulated pressure causing the main valve to
modulate open.
The needle valve controls the closing speed. The Cock-Valve [4] enables manual override to fully-open the valve in case
of emergency

Tender Specifications
The Differential-Pressure Sustaining Valve shall sustain minimum pre-set, differential pressure between two points
regardless of fluctuating flow or varying upstream pressure.
The main valve shall be a diaphragm-actuated, globe pattern (or angle) valve. Valve actuation shall be accomplished by a
fully peripherally supported, one-piece balanced rolling-diaphragm, vulcanized with metal insert. The diaphragm
assembly shall be the only moving part.
The valve shall have a removable cover for quick in-line service enabling all necessary inspection and servicing.
The valve shall have an unobstructed flow path, with no stem guide or supporting ribs.
The pilot system shall be field adjustable, with adjustable valve closing speed integrated to the main valve,
hydraulically-tested and supplied as an assembly consisting of:
Differential Pressure Sustaining Pilot valve as part of the assembly with built-in, internal needle valve
"Y" strainer
The Trim shall be supplied as an assembly, pre-assembled and hydraulically tested at an ISO 9000 & 9001
certified factory.

Typical Applications
Emergency Filter by-pass
In filtration systems there are two cases
when by-passing the filter is essential:
Blocked filter (potentially causing
element collapse)
Demand for Emergency fire-water
The Model FP-436, installed as a
by-pass, progressively compensates for
excessive demand.
Adding feature "S" incorporates alarm
signaling attribute.
