In industrial automation, sudden “hammering” effects caused by rapid air intake during system startup can lead to catastrophic mechanical failure, seal damage, and workplace hazards.
The GV Series Soft-Start Valve (also known as a Slow Start Valve) provides a critical safety function by gradually increasing the downstream pressure.
Once the system reaches approximately 50% of the supply pressure, the valve switches to full-flow mode, ensuring a smooth and controlled transition to operational power.
