BASIC RAF VALVE


GENERAL INFORMATION

Valves are used for general water supply and irrigation.


The valves are made of only three parts, each one is
made of durable materials. Upstream Downstream
The inner flow passages are streamlined and coated
with low-friction materials.
This provides quiet flow in both directions, low head-loss
and minimal wear.
Normally Close (N.C) valve

valves operate with a patented reinforced diaphragm, which


eliminates the need for a retaining metal spring.
The special elastic design enables gradual and precise
Upstream Downstream
opening or closing of the valve.
By eliminating the metal spring, the RAF is virtually
maintenance free.

Normally Open (N.O) valve

Kv = Valve flow coefficient [m3/h]; [bar]


Cv = Valve flow coefficient [gpm]; [psi]
Q = Flow rate,[m3/h]; [gpm]
P = Head loss across the valve [bar]; [psi]
Cv = 1.16 Kv

Q = Kv P

NOMINAL DIAMETER 1-14
The RAF 10 float level control valve is activated by line pressure in any situation that maximum water level should be
maintained.
The RAF 10 stays open as long as the water level in the reservoir is below the maximum preset level. As the water level
rises and lifts the float, the valve gradually closes.
When the water level is low, the control chamber of the valve is drained through the vent, the
valve opens and the reservoir is being filled.

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
The RAF 10 is best fit in remote sites.
The RAF 10 is used to maintain a maximum preset water level in a reservoir or water tank in a simple and an economic
manner.
The RAF 10 can be located above the water level. Due to its simple design,it is virtually maintenance free.
There is no need for energy other than line pressure.

STANDARD CONTROLS
RAF 10 float level control valve controls with Raphaels 2-W float pilot.
The pilot vent is opened or closed according to the float level.

P-182
2-W PRESSURE SUSTAINING/RELIEF PILOT
RAF VALVES 1-14

The P-182, 2-W pilot, operates when hydraulic pressure is applied below the spring loaded membrane wich is connected to
the pilots seal trim.
The P-182 is a Normally Close (N.C) pilot. When no pressure is applied below the spring loaded membrane, the pilot
commands the main valve to close.
When the pressure surpasses the set poin, the membrane moves upwards and water passage opens, allowing the main
valve to open. When the downstream pressure reduces below the pilots set point, the membrane moves downwards,
closing the water passage.
During the pilots operation water circulates constantly through the pilot, it provides an immediate response to any changes in
pipeline pressure.

ADJUSTING
To verify the springs pressure range, check the label specifications and compare to the spring range table.
Verify that the pilots built-in needle valve is 1/2 turn open. Turning adjusting screw clockwise will increase the set point and
turning the counter clockwise will decrease it. The valve takes a while to reach its new set point after changing the preset
pressure.
Turn adjusting screw 1/2 turn at a time and wait until the valve reaches stability. If necessary, turn again until reaching the
desired set point.
After reaching the desired set point, lock the adjusting screw by tightening the locking nut firmly to the cover.

P-683
3-W PRESSURE SUSTAINING\REDUCING PILOT
RAF VALVES 1-14

The P-683, 3-W pilot, operates only if pipeline conditions changes, when hydraulic pressure is applied below the spring loaded
membrane, wich is connected to the pilots seal trim, alternating the pilots water passage.
When the pilot reaches the desired set point, the seal trim locks all water passages, there is no water flow in the pilot and the
pilot remains in this position until a change in the downstream pressure.
The P-683 can be used either as a Normally Open(N.O) or as a Normally Close (N.C) pilot.

(N.O) CONFIGURATION
When the pressure head in the pilots sensor port is lower than the set point the membrane moves downwards, closing
pressure supply to the control chamber and opening a water passage from the main valves control chamber to the vent,
allowing the main valve to open. Once pressure head is built, the membrane moves upwards opening the pressure supply to
the control chamber and closing the pilots vent, allowing the main valve to close. When the pilot reaches the desired set
point, the seal trim locks all water passages.

ADJUSTING
To verify the springs pressure range, check the label specifications and compare to the spring range table. The valve takes a
while to reach its new set point after changing the preset pressure.
Turn adjusting screw 1/2 turn at a time and wait until the valve reaches stability.
If necessary, turn again until reaching the set point and lock the adjusting screw.
Try to avoid draining the water from the pilot on the valves body, or near electric sources.

P-10
2-W FLOAT LEVEL PILOT
RAF VALVES 1-6D

The P-10, 2-W,is a float pilot that interconnected by a lever arm. When water level reaches its maximum level, the float rises,
closing the water passage of the pilot and commands the main valve to close.
When water level drops, the float opens the water passage and main valve will open.
Every change in water level is conveyed to the pilot directly through the lever arm.
The pilots water passage will open proportionally to the water level.
The P-10 is usually used to command level control valves in small and medium water reservoirs.
There is no need for energy other than line pressure, it offers an economic level control solution.

ADJUSTING
The pilot should be installed in a location with no turbulent or wave. Verify that the pilot is installed in the reservoir at the
maximum water level. Verify that the needle valve is 3/4 turn open.
Verify that the float is free to travel up and down without interference inside the reservoir.
It is recommended to wait at least one regulating cycle (closing of the valve at maximum water level) before determining that
the pilot is set, to ensure water are not spilling from the reservoir.

P-100
2-W DIFFERENTIAL PILOT
RAF VALVES 1-14

The P-100, 2-W, is a Normally Open (N.O) and a differential pilot. The P-100 operates when hydraulic pressure is applied below
and above the spring loaded membrane wich is connected to the pilots seal trim. Upper and lower chambers of the pilot are
connected to upstream and downstream sides of a calibrated orifice plate, used as a flow sensor. Differential pressure across
the orifice changes with flow, and conveyed to the pilot through its sensing ports.
When low pressure difference is presented across the orifice plate, the valve opens. When pressure difference increases, the
valve tends to close, maintaining the requested flow.

ADJUSTING
The Orifice plate installed should be appropriate and calculated according to the desired flow.
Verify that the needle valve is only 3/4 turn open. Check orifice plate installation.
Check flow according to the desired set point. Pilot is delivered with adjusting screw fully loose. Possible set flow ranges from
this condition to +20%. Turning adjusting screw clockwise will increase the flow and counter clockwise will decrease it. The
valve takes a while to reach its new set point after changing the preset pressure. Turn adjusting screw 1 turn at a time and
wait until stability. If necessary, turn again until reaching the desired set point. After reaching the desired set point, lock the
adjusting screw by tightening the locking nut firmly to the cover.
