The Model 740 Booster Pump Control Valve is a double chambered, hydraulically operated, diaphragm actuated active check valve that opens fully or shuts off in response to electric signals. It isolates the pump from the system during pump starting and stopping, to prevent pipeline surges.

Typical Product Applications
In this system, a pump battery supplies the main line through a manifold. The Model 740, installed downstream from each pump:
- Prevents surge generation rather than minimizing surge damage
- Provides surge free starting and stopping of supplementary pumps
- Allows surge free switching between “on-duty” pumps
- Delays reaction of variable speed primary pump to single speed supplementary pump going on line or off line.
