Pressure Operated Relief Valve Model PORV-0
The PORV is a direct acting on/off valve, actuated by a pressure responsive diaphragm, which tends to reach equilibrium with the set spring force. The PORV is held closed by pneumatic or hydraulic pressure, sensed at its control chamber (under the diaphragm). It opens in response to a pressure drop of the wet/dry pilot line to below the set point, and/or in response to pressure being drained from its control chamber by a solenoid or other releasing device. The PORV is UL Listed when installed as part of the control trim of UL Listed deluge valves.
