CLA-VAL 90-01
Pressure Reducing Valve
` Simple, Reliable and Accurate
Pressure Reducing
Control CRD
x Completely Automatic Operation
x Easy Adjustment and Maintenance
x Quality Approved Materials
x World Wide Support
` CLA-VAL SERIES 90 Main Function
The CLA-VAL SERIES 90 reduces a higher inlet
pressure to a constant downstream pressure (Pressure
Reducing Control) regardless of changing flow rate
and/or varying inlet pressure.
` CLA-VAL 90-01 Typical Application
Make your Valve even Better!
The CLA-VAL 90-01 is designed to hold downstream
pressure to a pre-determined limit.
Typical Pressure Reducing Valve station using two valves
in parallel to handle high flows and low flows.
LFS Option?
Control Low flows or night flows
KO Option?
Extend valve life with Anti-Cavitation trim
KG1 Option?
Use stem cleaning for harsh water
Maintenance?
Check on periodic maintenance
Environment?
Adapt to high temperatures or frost risk
Security?
Add hydraulic safety back-up to your valve
Protection?
Remove excessive system overpressures
Corrosion?
Protect your valve with upgraded materials

Pressure Reducing Valve
` Operating data
1.1 ` PRESURE REDUCING FEATURE
Pressure reducing control CRD (5) is a "normally open" control that senses main valve (1) outlet pressure changes. An
increase in outlet pressure tends to close control (5) and a decrease in outlet pressure tends to open control (5). This causes
main valve cover pressure to vary and the main valve (1) to modulate (open and close) maintaining a relatively constant
outlet pressure.
Pressure reducing control (5) adjustment: Turn the adjusting screw clockwise to increase the setting.
1.2 ` OPENING SPEED CONTROL
Flow control CV (4) regulates the opening speed of main valve (1).
Flow control (4) adjustment: Turn the adjusting screw clockwise to make the main valve (1) open more slowly.
1.3 ` (E*) EUROPEAN STANDARDS
ITEM (2) - Isolation ball valve:
The isolation ball valves RB-117 (2) are used to isolate the pilot system from main line pressure. These isolation ball valves
must be open during normal operation.
ITEM (3) - Y-Strainer with incorporated orifice:
The strainer X44-A (3) is installed in the pilot supply line to protect the pilot system from foreign particles. The strainer
screen must be cleaned periodically.
1.4 ` OPTIONAL FEATURES
Suffix (A) - Internal strainer self-cleaning:
In some applications the self-cleaning strainer CLA-VAL, type X46A screwed at the inlet of main valve (1) reduces
maintenance generated by the cleaning of the standard strainer screen (3).
With this option (A) the strainer X46A replaces the strainer (3) and the orifice of the X44A strainer (3) is replaced by the
orifice assembly X58-CSA.
The cleaning of the strainer X46A is requesting its removal from the main valve body (1).
Suffix (C) - Closing speed:
Flow control CV (C) regulates the closing speed of main valve (1).
Flow control (C) adjustment: Turn the adjusting screw clockwise to make the main valve (1) close more slowly.
Suffix (Y) - High capacity filter:
When too many foreign particles are contained into the control pressure, it is recommended to replace the standard filter
X44 by the high capacity filter X43/80-EP, whose screen ( 80 mm x 110 mm) offers a much bigger filtration surface.
However an additional union fitting, with incorporated calibrated orifice, model X52-VR must be mounted between the filter
outlet and the T-piece connecting the main valve control chamber.
1.5 ` CHECK LIST FOR PROPER OPERATION
System valves open upstream and downstream.
Air removed from the main valve cover and pilot system at all high points.
Isolation ball valves (2) open.
Periodical cleaning of the filter screen (3) or of the self-cleaning strainer, [optional feature (A)].
Flow control (4) or [optional features (C)] open from 1 turn.
