Sudden pressure changes are usually linked to the velocity in the pipeline. If it is not properly prevented, excess pressure can have serious consequences for the entire hydraulic system. CSA valves are the answer to safe prevention of uncontrolled water hammer.

CSA VRCA series quick acting pressure relief valves have been designed to avoid the devastating effects of water hammer in pipeline systems. Their purpose is to prevent sudden pressure rises thanks to their ability to relieve excess water volume directly to atmosphere. They are direct acting valves, spring loaded to a given set pressure. They are compact and cost-effective valves, the best route to safe protection.
