APCO SmartCHECK Pump Control Valve (CPC)

The SmartCHECK Pump Control Valve with integrated swing check and electric motor operator combines the functionality of a full-featured pump control valve with the best features of APCO’s CVS-6000 swing check valve. It is the valve you need when you want to control pressure surge during pump startup and shutdown, and close when the pump stops – even during a power outage.

The secret to how this valve works is in its simple and unique torque unit. The torque unit allows the valve to function normally as a motorized pump control valve, except the valve closes automatically and without actuation upon power loss. If power is lost, SmartCHECK prevents damaging backflow, pump back spin, system drain back and flooding of the sump.

The electric motor actuator eliminates the need for hydraulic actuation providing the most economical solution, the lowest cost of ownership and the least maintenance. There are no pressurized hydraulic oil lines to leak, no solenoids or strainers to maintain, and no hydraulic power unit is required.

SmartCHECK valves are ideal for applications in many industries, such as water, wastewater, mining and power. The SmartCHECK valve is suitable for numerous media types and applications, such as raw sewage, wastewater, dewatering, raw water, clean water or any fluid pumped through a pipeline.
