Operations
The Watts ACV Pressure Reducing Control Valve is designed to automatically reduce a uctuating higher
upstream pressure to a constant lower downstream pressure regardless of varying ow rates. It is controlled by a normally open, pressure reducing pilot designed to: 1) Open (allowing uid out of the main valve
cover chamber) when downstream pressure is below the adjustable setpoint, and 2) Close (allowing uid to
ll the main valve cover chamber) when downstream pressure is above the adjustable setpoint. A decrease
in downstream pressure causes the valve to modulate toward an open position, raising downstream pres-
sure. An increase in downstream pressure causes the valve to modulate toward a closed position, lowering
downstream pressure.

Cavitation Chart
After selecting the valve size, locate inlet and outlet pressures on this chart. If the intersection point falls
in the shaded area, cavitation can occur. Operation of valves continually in the cavitation zone should be
avoided. Consult Watts ACV for alternatives.
