RATE-OF-FLOW VALVE
01/05
Stainless Series
S1114 or S61114 (Angle)
Specifications
The Rate-of-Flow Control Valve shall be a pilot operated diaphragm valve designed to automatically limit
flow rate to a constant, adjustable, maximum. The throttling action of the valve shall be controlled by an
externally mounted modulating control pilot, which senses differential pressure across a remote mounted
orifice plate (field installed).
The main valve shall be a hydraulically operated, single diaphragm actuated, globe or angle pattern valve.
Y-pattern valves shall not be permitted. The valve shall contain a disc and diaphragm assembly that forms
a sealed chamber below the valve cover, separating operating pressure from line pressure. The diaphragm
shall be constructed of nylon reinforced Buna-N, and shall not seal directly against the valve seat and shall
be fully supported by the valve body and cover. Rolling diaphragm construction will not be allowed and there
shall be no pistons operating the main valve or any pilot controls.
The main valve body shall be fabricated 304L with Class D zinc plated steel flanges, utilizing stainless
steel seal welds allowing the entire flow path to be stainless steel. External steel components shall be fully
primed and painted with a stainless steel paint to prevent surface corrosion. The valve cover and all internal
components shall be fabricated 304L Stainless Steel, and the main valve trim and throttling components
(cover bearing, valve seat and disc guide) shall be Stainless Steel.
S114 or S6114 (Globe)
The disc and diaphragm assembly shall contain a Buna-N synthetic rubber disc with a rectangular crosssection that is securely retained on 3-1/2 sides by a disc retainer and disc guide. Diaphragm assemblies
utilizing bolts or cap screws for component retention will not be permitted.
The exposed portion of the seat disc shall contact the valve seat and seal drip-tight. The disc and diaphragm
assembly must be guided by two separate bearings, one installed in the valve cover and one concentrically
located within the valve seat, to avoid deflection and assure positive disc-to-seat contact. Center guided
valves will not be permitted. All necessary repairs shall be made from the top of the valve while the body
remains in line.
Pilot control systems for valves 3” and smaller shall contain a Flow Clean Strainer, Adjustable Closing
Speed, Adjustable Opening Speed Control and Rate-of-Flow Pilot. Pilot control systems for valves 4” and
larger shall contain an external Y-Strainer, Adjustable Closing Speed Control, Adjustable Opening Speed
Control, Rate-of-Flow Pilot and Isolation Ball Valves on all body connections. All pilot control systems shall
utilize copper tubing and brass fittings regardless of valve size. The Orifice Plate Assembly shall be included
with the valve and field installed 3-5 pipe diameters downstream of the Flow Control Valve. The Orifice
Plate Assembly shall be (field) connected to the Rate-of-Flow Control Pilot in accordance with factory piping
schematic with minimum 3/8” diameter copper tubing.
The valve shall be Watts ACV Model S114 / S6114 (Globe) or S1114 / S61114 (Angle) Rate-of-Flow Control
Valve.
