REAL LIFE SINGER SOLUTIONS

SINGER’S SRD VALVE WITH ANTI-CAV TRIM REDUCES YARRA VALLEY STATION FROM 3 VALVES INTO 1

Their Challenge

To prevent cavitation with extreme pressure drop, address the excessive noise, severe erosion, valve damage and downstream pipeline issues - all caused by valve cavitation.

Our Solution

Singer Valve’s 150mm (6") Single Rolling Diaphragm (SRD) fitted with Anti-Cavitation trim

The Result

• Cavitation problems addressed with the 150mm SRD fitted with Anti-Cav trim (S106-PR-AC)
• Improved downstream pressure feeding into residential homes with better stability
• Removed the need to protect the other two valves with Anti-Cav trim as one valve can handle entire flow range 
• Less maintenance required in the future

"ANOTHER ADVANTAGE THAT IS SIGNIFICANT OVER TIME IS THAT WE NOW HAVE FEWER ASSETS REQUIRING LESS MAINTENANCE."
