Elevating Performance in High Grease and Fat Conditions With C50 Air Valves
Severn Trent Water is undertaking a comprehensive program to improve air valve performance in high grease and fat conditions across their network. This is part of a wider work program to ensure that all the Sewage Air Valves on the Severn Trent network meet a minimum and maintainable standard. This case study explores the implementation of BERMAD C50

How Does a Pressure Reducing Valve (PRV) Work?
Function of a Pressure Reducing Valve
Designed to withstand even the toughest environments, the pressure reducing valve (or PRV) is a hydraulically operated, diaphragm actuated control valve that reduces higher upstream pressure to lower constant downstream pressure—regardless of the fluctuating demand or the varying upstream force. Essentially, the valve maintains a steady state of pressure downstream, heedless of flow.

BERMAD’s 700 SIGMA Valve with Superior Cavitation Resistance Allows the Supply of Water in Extreme Working Conditions
Cavitation, which can damage delivery networks, is a given in all water supply systems. However, it is a particular concern in Australia where water supplies are already limited. In systems with inadequate pressure controls, cavitation can lead to significant damage, including pipe bursts, and ultimately a pipe burst if pressure is not properly controlled.
