I am not so familiar yet with this sytem and the american engineering terminology. Therfore asking if someone can suggest some companies that could supply a 3-way water valve that conforms to the following
Valve characteristic description
Inlet flow = A
Outlet flow = B + C, thus A = B + C
Linear electric pilot control of valve able of adjusting from C = 0 to C = 240 gpm and the
Same for B, thus C = 240 then B = 0
The valve is never closed. The valve is intended for controlling a water stream threw two opposite nozzles thus creating a force F = (mv – movo)/t that is in balance when the flow B = C and maximum when either B = 0 or C = 0
The valve should be rather fast and able to move between end positions 1 to 2 in less1 – 3 seconds. There are no specific high quality or long life demands since the over all accumulated valve operation time during a 10 – 20 year life time will only be in the range of less than 100 hours and may be with an accumulated valve adjusting time less than 10 % of that..
Operationvolatage is 12 VDC and controlling should be directly proportional and linear but
with no specified accuracy. Low price may be of essence.
Thank You
