Applications
FIRE CONTROL
Maric Flow Control Valves offer a safe and dependable water flow
When installing fire-fighting systems, safety and reliability are paramount. Maric Flow Control Valves are brilliantly designed to work in the most challenging environments, including offshore oil rigs. These simple valves automatically deliver a pre-set and constant flow of seawater to the nozzle of fire-fighting equipment, irrespective of pressure differentials, while simultaneously ensuring the correct ratios of dosed foaming agents. Valves can be tailored to work within a given range, typically between 140-1000 kPa.
Beneficial applications for Maric Flow Control Valves
- Controlling maximum flow
Ensuring that during peak demand all customers receive an agreed supply.
- Ensuring consistent chemical dosing concentration
By controlling the flow of water for correct ratio dosing of foaming agent.
- Protecting and optimising pumps
By maintaining a constant flow of gland flushing water (packing or seal water)
- Extend gland life
Fixing flow rates to maximise the life of the pump gland
Other applications for Maric Flow Control Valves
- Safety showering and eye-wash equipment
- Cooling equipment
- Vacuum pump seal water control
Benefits of Maric Flow Control Valves
- Automatically responds instantly to pressure fluctuations
- No external actuation required
- Self-cleaning and maintenance-free design
- Extremely compact compared to conventional diaphragm
- Lifespan of up to 15 years
- Tamper-proof, preventing unauthorized adjustments
- Odour-free and non-toxic
