Cavitation Protection Valve

A Cavitation Protection Valve is designed to prevent damage from cavitation in systems with high-velocity flows. This valve mitigates the formation and collapse of vapor bubbles by maintaining optimal pressure conditions and controlling flow dynamics. It helps protect valves, pumps, pipelines, and other components from the destructive effects of cavitation, ensuring longevity and reliability in both waterworks and mining operations.

Cavitation Protection Valve Applications:

  • Waterworks:
    • Used in water distribution systems to prevent cavitation in valves, pumps and pipelines.
    • Used in water reservoir filling tanks where velocity and differential pressure are high. The cavitation protection add-on helps to extend the lifespan of the float valve.
  • Mining: Protects high-velocity fluid systems from cavitation damage in mineral processing, deep mines, and slurry transport.

Cavitation Protection Valve Benefits:

  • Damage Prevention: Reduces risk of cavitation-induced erosion and pitting.
  • System Reliability: Enhances the durability and performance of fluid handling systems.
  • Operational Efficiency: Helps maintain optimal flow conditions, minimizing maintenance needs.
