The Model 792-U Burst Control & Pressure Reducing Valve is a hydraulically operated, diaphragm actuated control valve with two independent functions. When flow is below setting, it reduces higher upstream pressure to lower pre-set downstream pressure, regardless of varying demand or upstream pressure. Upon sensing flow in excess of setting, it shuts off drip tight and locks (until it is manually reset).
Model 792-U
Product Features & Benefits
- Line pressure driven – Independent operation
- Hydraulic flow sensor (upstream installation)

Typical Product Applications
Burst Control Valves in a Network
Every water system is vulnerable to bursts, whether due to system problems or external mechanical damage. This illustration shows a reservoir feeding a downhill line with lower elevation consumers. Each Model 792-U protects the lower elevation consumers. It reduces their supply pressure and, in case of burst, “closes & locks,” preventing flooding. The Model 790-M, installed at the reservoir outlet, also protects against reservoir emptying.
