Surge relief angle valves prevent surge damage on lift station
Problem: New freeway construction required an existing lift station to be relocated in the city of Phoenix. The new location was in a hilly part of town with some significant elevation changes that could potentially cause a damaging surge event.
Solution: APCO SRA-3000A surge relief angle valves from DeZURIK were installed on the lift station to prevent line damage from surges that occur when the lift station pumps cycle on and off. The valve is an elbow body-style surge relief valve that is held normally closed by a compression spring or system of nested springs.
