Apollo 108FC Fire Pump Relief ValveIndonesia Industrial Parts

Apollo Valves 108FC Fire Pump Relief Valve Description

The Apollo 108FC Relief Valve automatically relieves excess fire pump discharge pressure, to prevent the pressure from exceeding the rating of the fire system components. The normally closed, spring-loaded pilot, sensing pump discharge pressure, opens when pressure exceeds the spring setting, allowing the main valve to open.

As the pump pressure increases the pilot controls the main valve to open further. The pressure is maintained at the controlled set point over a wide range of flows regardless of back pressure in the downstream piping. The valve closes gradually as pressures decrease below the set point.

Sizing

Fire pump relief valves are sized per the guidelines in NFPA 20, and are based on the rated flow of the pump.
