Operation
The Watts ACV Pump Control Valve is designed to minimize the surges associated with the starting and
stopping of pumps. The valve slowly opens and closes as required to control pumping related surges. The
pump starts and stops against a closed valve.
Pump Start Up: When the pump is signaled to start, the 3-Way Solenoid is energized, directing pressure
into the cover chamber of the 3-way Accelerator Pilot. The Accelerator Pilot allows the main valve cover
chamber to be vented downstream, causing the valve to open at a controlled rate, gradually admitting
pumping pressure into the distribution system. The rate of opening is controlled by the adjustable opening
speed control, which restricts the speed of fluid and pressure evacuating the main valve cover chamber.
The valve remains open during the pumping cycle.
Pump Shutdown: When the pump is signaled to turn off, the 3-Way Solenoid is de-energized, venting the
cover chamber of the 3-way Accelerator Pilot. The Accelerator Pilot allows the main valve cover chamber to
be connected to upstream pressure, causing the valve to close at a controlled rate. The valve slowly begins
to close while the pump continues to operate. The closing rate of the valve is controlled by the adjustable
closing speed control, which restricts the speed of fluid and pressure entering the main valve cover chamber.
When the valve reaches the closed position, the limit switch is actuated, turning the pump off.

Hydraulic Check Feature: When the pump is turned off and downstream pressure is greater than upstream
pressure, downstream pressure is admitted to the main valve cover chamber through a check valve in the
pilot control system, closing the valve, preventing reversal of flow.
Manual Operation: Engaging the Solenoid Manual operator simulates power to the solenoid, manually
opening the main valve. Disengaging the Solenoid Manual operator returns the valve to the closed
position.

Installation Guidelines
M113-21 or M6113-21 (Globe)
• Prior to installation, flush line to remove debris.
• Install valve horizontally “in line” (cover facing UP), so flow arrow matches flow through the line. Avoid
installing valves 6” and larger vertically. Consult factory prior to ordering if installation is other than
described.
• Install inlet and outlet isolation valves. NOTE: When using butterfly valves, insure disc does not contact
control valve. Damage or improper valve seating may occur.
• Provide adequate clearance for valve servicing and maintenance.
• Install pressure gauges to monitor valve inlet and outlet pressure.
• Connect Solenoid and Limit Switch to appropriate pump control panel locations and power source in
compliance with local electrical codes.
