Third-party tests under different conditions – using a rubber
hose instead of a hard-piped system – yielded similar results.
In the field
It's easy to use these solenoid valves in any design or
installation. Each is a standard industry workhorse, a 2-way
normally closed, pilot operated valve familiar to anyone
designing or using fluidics for commercial or industrial
applications. The IMI Norgren
®
82410 is supplied in brass
and the IMI Norgren
®
82740 in 316 stainless steel for more
aggressive operating environments. In addition, their compact
size gives engineers design flexibility and more control over their
equipment footprint.
But the benefits of reduced water hammer effect are not
limited to new equipment. These valves can also be used as a
maintenance upgrade. While it is common practice to replace
worn valves with new ones from the same manufacturer, the
case for reducing water hammer is often strong enough to
make plant operators and maintenance professionals consider
a direct replacement with the IMI Norgren
®
82410 or 82740
instead. IMI Precision Engineering can help evaluate port-to-
port sizing to make sure it will fit in your hard-piped system.
Whether designing new systems or improving existing ones,
reducing pressure spikes is a simple way to prolong service
life, maintain system safety and reduce noise. Choosing the
right valve is the simplest, most cost-effective way to reduce
pressure spikes due to water hammer.
