CSV with Dole Valve
« on: June 04, 2013, 03:42:44 PM »
I saw on your website that a Dole Valve can be used upstream of a CSV.  s there anything in particular I need to know about installing a Dole valve upstream of a CSV?   Such as a minimum distance away on the pipeline, or any other requirements or cautions?

Thanks,

Bob

You will need a nipple between the CSV and Dole valve, and even a 2" long nipple if plenty.  The Dole valve will limit the upper fow range and the CSV will work from there down to 1 GPM.  Like with a 6 GPM Dole valve, the CSV works from 1 to 6 GPM.
