OCV 108SA-3, is a diaphragm-actuated, rigid sealing, surge-anticipating globe valve, activated by the pressure of the pipeline. The valve protects the pumping system from water hammer, caused by sudden pump shut-off (case of power failure, for example). The valve, assembled on a T-junction of the main pipeline, instantly opens when the pump stops, relieving the returning high pressure wave. The valve slowly closes once the pressure returns to the static level. The valve also functions as a pressure relief valve.
