I. PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION 

 
The Ruelco 

‘SC-1’ 

is a high pressure 3-

way, Normally Closed Interface Valve 
operated by a low pressure control 
signal. Pilot pressure opens the valve 
and allows flow from inlet to outlet.  A 
loss of pilot pressure actuates the piston, 
first blocking the inlet and venting the 
outlet pressure. In the second stage of 
closing, the shut-off piston then blocks 
the vent port from the outlet port. The 
high Cv factor of the Interface valve 
assures a fast response to a loss of pilot 
control pressure. The soft seat design 
assures extended life and repeatability.    
The SC-1 also comes in an Override 
model which allows the operator to 
manually open and close the valve 
without the use of pilot pressure.  
 

II. INSTALLATION
 

The

 ‘SC-1’ 

can be mounted either 

vertically, horizontally, or supported by 
piping from any of its ports. If it is 
supported by piping, care should be 
taken that the strength of the pipe fittings 
used is adequate to prevent the fitting 
from breaking off in the valve body 
should the valve be inadvertently struck. 
 
Proper pipe thread sealant should be 
used on any pipe fittings threaded into 
the valve ports. If stainless steel fittings 
are used, a sealant that will prevent 
galling is required.  
 

Every Interface face valve has a panel 
mount spacer designed into the cap to 
aid in panel mounting.  The rotating ring 
design of the override model allows the 
operator to construct the pilot pressure 
line in any direction. 
 

 
III. DISASSEMBLY  (REFER TO 

SPEC. SHEET 8200)
