Operation
Closed condition:
The control mechanism shuts off connection between the vacuum piping and the discharge valve housing. As the
valve housing is under atmospheric pressure the spring-loaded closing mechanism closes the rubber diaphragm
and isolates the bowl from the vacuum piping.
Open condition:
As the control valve opens the discharge valve housing is subjected to vacuum, thus forcing the closing mechanism
to open. This in turn allows the rubber diaphragm to open, and connects the bowl to the vacuum pipe line.
Closing sequence:
The vacuum pulse enters to the relief valve. The relief valve opens the port between athmospheric air and the
discharge valve. Athmospheric air enters to the discharge valve witch closes immediatelly. After a short delay the
atmospheric air pulse reaches to the water valve and the relief valve. The water valve closes and lets the certain
level of water at the bottom in the bowl.
