Operation:
The valve regulates the maximum pressure of the system by varying the flow discharged by the bypass. The adjustment is made by altering, by means of a piston, the position of a sphere which partially closes the bypass opening. The valve is sensitive to water flow. At gun opening, the water flows through the valve which maintains the system in pressure until the gun closes, the interruption of the flow provokes the complete aperture of the bypass which allows to discharge the flow at low pressure. At gun closure, the special mechanism of zero setting, which does not include a check valve, keeps in connection the delivery line and the bypass line, in that way permitting to lower the pressure all around the system and not only in the source line of the valve.
