Cartridge Style Pressure Reducing Valve
Purpose
The 3350 valve is used to automati-
cally feed water to a hydronic system
whenever pressure in the system
drops below the pressure setting of
the valve.
Operation
The cartridge style design ensures
unsurpassed output pressure stabil-
ity. A balance between diaphragm
position and spring tension based
on the desired outlet pressure is
consistently maintained, even when
inlet pressures fluctuate severely. The
unique one-piece cartridge design
significantly reduces diaphragm load,
extending the overall product life.
Unlike conventional PRV designs, the
diaphragm does not double as a seal
between the body and the cap.
This allows for optimization of the
diaphragm for its intended use -
maintaining pressure stability.
A unique encapsulated shaft seal
system prevents flowing media
from contacting the diaphragm,
greatly extending diaphragm life. If
the diaphragm ever does fail, the
encapsulated shaft and body seals
work together to stop water from
exiting the valve. Use of a stainless
steel coaxial strainer prohibits system
debris from affecting the valves’
performance. An integral check valve
allows the cartridge to be removed
under system pressure for replace-
ment or servicing.
Fast Fill
The 3350 provides an efficient and
simple solution to filling your heating
system. Simply push down the fast
fill button on top of the PRV and
when the set pressure is reached the
valve pops out of fast fill and returns
to its normal operating mode. This
automatic reset feature of the fast fill
on the 3350 eliminates the common
problem of system over pressuriza-
tion and prevents the relief valve
from blowing off.
