205 Forage Ave PO Box 578, Thee River, Ml 45088 US.AThe Schroedahl Automatic Recirculation
Valve series offers the highest state
of the art for centrifugel pump recircu-
lation control systems. with 25 years
experience, i.e., from the original
patent of the self-contained unit to
the latest product improvements, the
Schroedahl series continue to provide
the customer's system with the proper
equipment.
APPLICATION:
Minimum Flow Recirculation for pump
protection.
During critical low-load operating
periods, centrifugal pumps require a
dependable minima flow recirculation
system to prevent overheating and
unstable operation. Previously, these
systems have been comprised of multiple
components including flow or pressure
sensing devices, signal controllers,
check valves, pressure dissipating
devices and diverting control valves.
This resulted in systems that were
both complex and costly, requiring
sizable expenditures for design, in-
stallation, and maintenance, while
Providing marginal performance.
The Schroedahl ARV series offers an
economic alternative to the above out-
lined recirculation system. The ARV
series is a self-contained, automatic
flow regulating device encompassing
all the components of the conventional,
minimum flow system in a single valve.
FEATURES:
The ARV is a compact design offering
several features nonmally associated
only with separate components. ‘The
main body is comprised of a lifting
disc check valve to prevent reverse
flow through the pump. Motion of the
check valve regulates directly the
flow to the bypass section. Selection
of the correct bypass depends on the
flow and pressure requirements of the
pump and process. Bypass options are
detailed on page two (2). Pulsation
dampening device is mounted on top of
the main check valve to eliminate
pulsation.
Use of the ARV reduces power costs,
saves on system engineering and mainte-
nance costs, and reduces down time,
as well as the primary function of
purp protection.
PRINCIPLE OF OPERATI
‘The ARV, just as a check valve, is
installed in the pump main discharge
line. As pump output decreases, flow
across valve also decreases, resulting
in a reduction of dynamic forces
acting on the spring loaded disc. when
these dynamic forces become less than
the spring forces, the disc or check
valve portion begins to seat. It is
important to note that the seating
begins while there is still a positive
flow, thus protecting against reverse
flow.
‘SPECIFICATIONS:
The ARV is available in carbon, alloy,
or stainless steel, and rated by ANSI
pressure classes up to 4500f. Material:
are of the highest quality and selected
to minimize the effects of erosion
and corrosion.

ne (19) 706745INSTALLATION:
‘The pump recirculation control valve,
‘TD series, is best mounted on the
discharge connection of the pump, in
a vertical position with the flow
direction upward.
NOTE: The vertical installation is
considered standard. Horizontal
installation is acceptable but the
valve must be ordered as such. These
valves are fitted with a hard liner
in the check valve area to prevent
excessive wear due to the weight of
the check valve.
If not mounted directly to the pump
flange, the distance between the valve
inlet and pump outlet should not exceed
five (5) feet. This is important so
that low frequency pulsations due to
the elasticity of the fluid are prevented.
The outlet should be connected to
piping such that a minimum of 14" clearance
is available to allow lifting of the
upper housing after the flange bolts
have been removed. This allows access
to the valve internals without dismount-
ing the lower housing.
BYPASS CONNECTION:
The bypass Line should be connected to
the side flange. Provide a 12" spool
piece to facilitate the removal of
the bypass section. The bypass internals
can then be inspected or removed.
NOTE: Be careful to install the
correct valve for each application.
Fach valve is sized for a specific
set of operating conditions. Valves,
even of the sane size, are usually
not interchangeable. Contact HBE
Engineering, Inc. at (616) 279-2035
if any field conditions should change.
On each valve body a special nutber
starting with the letter "K" is
hammered into the body. Please check
this number before contacting HBE
Engineering, Inc.
‘START UP:
Prior to start up, the valve should be
inspected for mechanical damage.
Observe proper operation of the valve
by closing the discharge valve on the
outlet of the pump. A flow should be
noticed through the bypass piping.
Open the discharge valve again to
establish a no-flow condition in the
bypass.
NOTE: The shut off valve in the bypass
should always be opened first during
start up and closed last during shut
down.
‘MAINTENANCE:
Periodically check the correct opera-
tion of the valve. Proceed as de-
scribed in the above section.
INSPECTION:
Disassemble and inspect the valve,
depending on the condition, at least onde
a year. Due to the fact that fluids are
of different natures, we recommend that
the bypass valve be inspected after the
start up procedure. After this, clean
fluids once per year, contaminated fluids
depending on the contamination, every 345
months.
SPARE PARTS:
A parts list is enclosed. It is
reconmended to stock a set of spare
parts (see list) and an extra set of
seals.

Phone: 615 29.2088 Fax (66) 2784745,Install Schrocdahl ARV on pump outlet if possible, but not further
than 5' away from pump outlet. In case installation is further
away than 5*, call HBE Engineering, Inc. for installation instruc-
tions (616) 279-2035.
In case bypass orifice plates are supplied, install these on the
inlet of the bypass line entrance to the feed tank.
In case start up orifices were not part of the supply, renove
bypass valve during cleaning of the systems.
CONTROL VALVES CAN BE DAMAGED BY CONTAMINATED LIQUID.
CLEAN SYSTEM WELL BEFORE OPERATING THE AUTOMATIC
RECIRCULATING VALVE.
In case isolation valves are installed to isolate the pump and
recirculating valve, the following start up and shut down
Procedures should be used:
START UP: a. Open bypass line isolation valve.
b. Open suction side and outlet side
isolation valves.
Close suction side and outlet side
isolation valves.
Close bypass line isolation valve.

ASSEMBLY AND DISASSEMBLY
‘The automatic recirculating valve Model TDM (called hereafter TDM) is usually
installed vertically, with the mainflow upward, and directly on the pump
discharge flange. The bypass housing is connected to the bypass piping (and
the piping consequently to the feedwater tank) so that a recirculation flow
will be possible. Other installation positions of the valve (horizontal,
upside-down) are possible, if so ordered only.
No special tools are required for the installation, assembly or disassembly
of the valve.
INSTALLATION AT THE JOBSITE
In order to prevent damage to the flange finish and/or the bolts, the complete
valve should be installed in the piping, free of tension/stress.
DISASSEMBLY OF THE ‘TIM
Remove the TON fram the piping system. Disassemble bypass housing Pos. 09.
Pull the bypass trim "M” out of the assambly carefully. Apply a screwdriver
between the collar of the control head (Pos. 11) and the valve body (Pos. 1).
Remove the upper body (Pos. 2) from the lower body (Pos. 1) by loosening the
hexagon nuts (Pos. 28).
The check valve (Pos. 7) and spring (Pos. 6) can now be removed from the
ower body (Pos. 28).
Clean all parts and check for any damages. In case of damaged seats (check
valve seat or bypass seat), this should be repaired by lapping the respective
parts on the seats.
Replace ring (Pos. 30) as required.
ASSEMBLY OF THE TDM
Replace the check valve (Pos. 5/7) with the spring (Pos. 6) in the lower body
(Pos. 1).
Now the upper body (Pos. 2) is placed on the lower body (Pos. 1) and the
hexagon nuts (Pos. 28) are tightened.
Carefully insert the bypass section "M" in the valve body and ascertain that
lever (Pos. 13) fits (slides) in the slot in the check valve (Pos. 5/7).
‘The bypass housing (pos. 9) with the bypass orifice (Pos. 23) is now carefully
replaced and tightened to the housing (Pos. 1) with the hexagon nuts (Pos. 29).
