The S transfer valve is to avoid the problem created when the 2/3 valve begins to take up the load.
The transfer valve is a pneumatic device that switches the small valve off, and engages the larger valve.
It senses the 3-15 psi pneumatic signal. When the first valve engaged reaches 15 psi, it switches the pneumatic signal to the larger valve.
Features- Shifts flow between low and high load valves @ 15-25% capacity
- Handles wide load swings
- Eliminates circuit oscillation
- Protects against high velocity erosion of valve
- Reliably maintains steam outlet pressure
