Phillips Flow Control Manifold Series

What do they do?

•       Control the flow of your fuel from the main storage tank to the day tanks

 Why do I need them?

•       Provide a failsafe system that prevents overflow of the day tank or device or inadvertent syphoning by allowing the fuel to pass through one or more controllable valves.

•       Allows flow to be gauged so you can validate you have flow volume and flow GPM

•       Allows flow to be limited or adjusted

•       Provides a manual bypass around your electronic control valves to provide redundant protection from valve failure

•       Allows systems to continue to operate manually while primary electronic valves are repaired or replaced in the event of a failure

•       Provides directional flow for multiple day tank applications

 Typical Applications

•       Used in conjunction with a pump controller

•       Day Tank Feed Systems

•       Generator Feed Systems

•       Boiler Feed Systems

•       Fire pumps

 How do they work?

•       Primary valve, electronic (ball or solenoid) supply valve – typically normally closed – set to opens when the tank calls for fuel and closes when the flow reaches a specified full amount (%).

•       Manual bypass valves allow you to isolate the electronic valve to move the flow around the electronic valve in the event that it has failed.

•       Failsafe valve – typically normally open – set to close in the event the tank is full and the pump is still running and or the NC Valve failed open. This valve will close to stop flow of fuel and prevent overfilling as a redundant backup to the NC Valve.

•       Flanged fittings allow easy drop in, drop out replacement and prevent leaks

•       In multi tank systems, the manifolds work in conjunction with each other and the pump controller to open and close valves allowing for tanks to filled individually or simultaneously.

Options:

Option Number Option Description
MBVPI Motorized Ball Valve with position indicators Motorized Ball Valve in Lieu of Solenoid Valve with position indicators
BV Manual Ball Valves Where additional isolation is required
FI Flow Indicator Shows visually whether you have flow in your manifold
FS Flow Switch – GPM to be ½ of GPM of Pump Output
¾”

2”
Provides an electronic output that you have flow. Placed Often tied back to your pump controller to provide a no flow alarm. Need GPM of the pump for sizing. Would be placed on the output of the manifold, after the electronic valve.
FLV
FLVP
Fusible Link Valves The first line of defense on the input of your fuel line. These links will melt in the event of a fire causing a valve shutoff to flow of fuel.

A switch can be added to send an output to our controller in the event the valve closes.

FH Flexible Hose Connections Used to connect the discharge of the manifold to the day tanks
SS Stainless steel construction Typically used for water and chemical applications but may be used where rust can be an issue.
