Description

The Zurn Wilkins ZW205 is a 6 inch pilot-operated pressure relief and pressure sustaining valve, ideal for applications requiring precise upstream pressure control. This angle body valve features ANSI Class 150 flanged connections and a durable ductile iron construction with a stainless steel seat. It maintains system stability by relieving excess pressure or sustaining a minimum upstream pressure within a 50-200 psi range. Standard features include a wye strainer, isolation valves, and an inlet pressure gauge. The valve is blue epoxy coated, Lead Free, and NSF/ANSI/CAN 61 certified, offering reliability and ease of maintenance.

The Zurn Wilkins Model ZW205 valve features ANSI Class 150 Flanged end connections, designed for secure and reliable installation into a piping system with matching flanges. This pilot-operated valve senses upstream pressure to regulate flow. The pilot assembly, with its preset spring range, controls the main valve's opening and closing, ensuring stable system pressure by relieving excess pressure or sustaining a minimum upstream pressure.

Installation Considerations

  • Connects to ANSI Class 150 flanged piping systems.
  • Designed for inline installation to monitor and control upstream pressure.
  • For 6 inch and larger valves, install horizontally with the valve cover up to facilitate air bleeding and maintenance.

Additional Details

The Zurn Wilkins Model ZW205 is a pilot-operated pressure relief and pressure sustaining valve engineered for critical applications requiring a predetermined upstream pressure to be maintained. This valve modulates to relieve excess pressure or sustain upstream pressure, ensuring system stability.

Key Features

  • Serves as both a pressure relief and pressure sustaining valve
  • Blue epoxy coated, FDA approved for durability and longevity
  • Includes a "Wye" type strainer, isolation valves, and an inlet pressure gauge for simplified start-up and maintenance
  • Equipped with closing speed control for smooth operation
  • Standard relief range of 50 to 200 psi, with other ranges available
  • Designed with an angle style body for versatile installation
  • Pilot system features copper tubing and brass fittings

Construction Materials

  • Main Valve Body: Ductile Iron ASTM A536
  • Main Valve Bonnet: Ductile Iron ASTM A536
  • Disc Guide: Stainless Steel
  • Seat: Stainless Steel
  • Disc: Buna-N Rubber
  • Diaphragm: Nylon Reinforced Buna-N
  • Stem: Stainless Steel
  • Spring: Stainless Steel

For 6 inch and larger valves, the recommended installation orientation is horizontal with the valve cover up, due to potential difficulty in bleeding air and performing maintenance in vertical orientations.
