The SmartCHECK Pump Control Valve with integrated swing check and electric motor operator combines the functionality of a full-featured pump control valve with the best features of APCO’s CVS-6000 swing check valve. It is the valve you need when you want to control pressure surge during pump startup and shutdown, and close when the pump stops – even during a power outage.

The secret to how this valve works is in its simple and unique torque unit. The torque unit allows the valve to function normally as a motorized pump control valve, except the valve closes automatically and without actuation upon power loss. If power is lost, SmartCHECK prevents damaging backflow, pump back spin, system drain back and flooding of the sump.

The electric motor actuator eliminates the need for hydraulic actuation providing the most economical solution, the lowest cost of ownership and the least maintenance. There are no pressurized hydraulic oil lines to leak, no solenoids or strainers to maintain, and no hydraulic power unit is required.

SmartCHECK valves are ideal for applications in many industries, such as water, wastewater, mining and power. The SmartCHECK valve is suitable for numerous media types and applications, such as raw sewage, wastewater, dewatering, raw water, clean water or any fluid pumped through a pipeline.

The Red Valve Series 5200 Control Valve offers maximum durability with precise control and virtually eliminates maintenance. The Series 5200 valve is designed in sizes 1” to 4”. A heavy-duty, rugged pinch mechanism positions the sleeve resulting in accurate flow control. The valve has no packing to maintain or seats to wear and the need for expensive body alloys is eliminated.

The standard Series 5200 Control Pinch Valve is designed with a stroke adjustment located inside the valve yoke. The stroke adjustment allows customers to easily make small control changes in the field and simplifies actuator maintenance by creating a removal point in the valve stem. The stroke adjustment allows the user to fine tune the flow control as the sleeve wears, particularly in slurry applications.

Variable orifice and cone sleeves can be specified to further enhance control performance and match the exact Cv level desired. True feedback positioning is accomplished through the direct linkage of the pneumatic positioner to the valve stem shaft. There is no splitting of the positioner output. The benefits of true feedback positioning on the 5200 Valve are accurate small-change response signals to the positioner, causing similar changes in true valve position, greatly enhancing control accuracy.

In smaller sizes, the Series 5200 is available with a diaphragm actuator. The quick-response and low-hysteresis of a diaphragm actuator allows the 5200 to react quickly to input signals. This gives the 5200 Diaphragm great accuracy and repeatability on small-diameter slurry lines.

In sizes over 4", the Series 5200 D is used. A slight pre-pinch of the sleeve does not affect capacity or flow, but increases response to input signal and accuracy.

The Series 5200 can also be specified with a choice of electric actuators as the Series 5200E.

Red Valve's Series 5200 D-Port Control Valve is a highly economical control valve choice. When fully open, the D-Port has 95% of the flow of a full-ported valve. Flow control begins immediately, providing a linear flow characteristic. The D-Port configuration employs a single actuator which closes from the top. This design shortens the actuator stroke, which in turn reduces operating costs. An external stroke adjustment is provided. The rugged elastomer sleeve is self-cleaning, with no packing to maintain and provides accurate, repeatable control. The Series 5200 D-Port control valve can be furnished with a standard, double wall or cone sleeve design.

Red Valve’s Series 5200D Diaphragm-Actuated Control Pinch Valve is available for customers who prefer diaphragm actuators. Most significant is the valve’s ability to control in smalldiameter applications. A diaphragm actuator offers a more responsive relationship between travel and air pressure since there is less friction and hysteresis than with piston actuators. This results in more accurate response to the instrument signal and tighter control of the process fluid.

The Series 5200D Control Pinch Valve is designed with a heavy-duty, one-piece yoke. This permits a wide array of accessories to be mounted directly and easily to the top works. The Series 5200D Control Valve is available in stroke sizes up to 3" . For example, a 6" Control Valve with a 6" x 3" Cone Sleeve trim has 3" of stroke. A direct mount or short yoke design is available to reduce overall valve height.

The simple construction of the diaphragm actuator makes it a highly cost-effective control valve.

Red Valve's Series 5300 Valves feature many of the same advantages of the Series 5200 line of control pinch valves in a light-weight, low-cost, open frame design. The open frame design is possible because the sleeve is the only wetted part of the pinch valve, protecting the operating mechanism and frame from corrosive or abrasive attack from the line process. A heavy-duty, rugged pinch mechanism pinches the sleeve, resulting in accurate flow control. The Series 5300 has no packing to maintain or seats to wear and is well suited for handling corrosives, powders and slurries.

Pneumatic, electric or hydraulic operators are available complete with pneumatic or electro-pneumatic positioners. Due to the fabricated open frame design of the Series 5300, slight variations in face-to-face length can be accommodated.

The Series 9000 High Pressure Control Pinch Valve is Red Valve’s ANSI Class 300# control valve product. The heavy-duty elastomer sleeves are reinforced with high strength nylon, polyester fabrics or Kevlar material. Several heavy-duty sleeve designs are available - standard full-port for on/off isolation applications; double wall for severe abrasive applications; cone, reduced-port and variable orifice designs for control applications. The elastomer sleeve will close even on solids and the flexing action of the sleeve eliminates the possibility of scaling. Combining these features with a sealed body design and no packing to maintain results in a simple, rugged, no hang-up, maintenance-free valve.

The Series 9000 is equipped with a heavy-duty solid steel stroke adjustment unit located on the valve base. This allows the user to fine-tune control or adjust stroke for abrasion sleeve wear. This flexibility eliminates downtime.

The Red Valve Series RSR Pressure Relief Valve is designed specifically for slurry applications. It is a reliable relief valve available for slurry service, venting surge pressures in the system or to maintain system pressure.

The valve operates simply by making use of a spring loaded cylinder, which keeps a rugged reinforced rubber pinch valve sleeve pinched closed. As process pressure builds up and exceeds the tension set by the spring, the valve opens. The greater the pressure build up, the more the valve opens. The sleeve isolates the process from the pinch mechanism, eliminating corrosion, bridging, plugging, and valve freezing.

The adjustment nut on top of the actuator allows for easy external recalibration. If actual system operation pressures change, the correction and fine tuning of the system can be made by simply turning the adjustment nut. An optional accessory system for handling sustained surges is also available.
