Operation:
Compressor flow is prioritized to the high pressure dispenser line and when the set pressure is reached the first pressure maintaining valve opens allowing filling of the first storage bank. When the first storage bank reaches set pressure the next valve opens and the second storage bank is filled. Likewise when that storage level is reached, the third storage bank is filled.
Due to using dome-loaded back-pressure valves, there is minimum pressure drop and droop. The entire setting is done by adjusting one pressure regulator integral with the system. Four non-return valves prevent back-flow. We know of no competitors to this valve manifold. Its reliability and outstanding performance have been proven since its first commercial use in 1994.
