What are the benefits of using ASR Resource’s valves?
Elimination of Cascading Water: At startup and during recharge, the valve is set in the closed position allowing the drop pipe to fill with water. The air in the pipe is evacuated through an air-vacuum valve at the well head ensuring the elimination of cascading water. Elimination of Air Entrainment: Air entrainment in recharge or injection wells leads to air fouling of the formation, increased bio-fouling and calcite formation along with the costs of well rehabilitation. The correct operation of the valve effectively eliminates air entrainment. Near Linear Flow Control: The recharge rate may be set using a manual or electric hydraulic control valve with local and/or SCADA control. Flow may be adjusted using a null loop, a dead band, a magnetic flow meter and the dynamic water level along with a PLC to control the water flow through the “D” ports for near linear control. Shock Reduction: The V-Smart Valve is designed to smoothly start a recharge well, adjust the flow linearly, and plac
