R-20 SM 3W 

 
Pressure Sustaining Control Valve 
3 Way 

The following is a step by step narrated description of the Eliptix R-

20-SM

 

3

W Pressure Sustaining 

Valve installation, operation and maintenance processes. 
The A.R.I. R-

20

 Series is a line of composite material, diaphragm-operated, hydraulic control valves. 

The  valves  are  suitable for  installation  in  agriculture,  water  transmission  and  waterworks  systems 
for irrigation, landscape and infrastructure applications. 
The R-

20

 series has an innovative elliptic shaped diaphragm that integrates well with a wide variety 

of regulating control pilots, solenoids and control accessories. 
They are compatibility designed for water level control, flow control, electric & remote control as 
well as pressure reducing & pressure sustaining operation. 
The R-

20-SM

 

3

-Way Pressure Sustaining Valve is designed to sustain and maintain a pre-defined level 

of upstream pressure and relieve excess pressure to the downstream system.
