The divert valve is a three-way, two-position valve that is installed upstream of the meter and used to divert flow whenever a fault condition is detected.

 

The divert valve is equipped with either an electric, hydraulic or pneumatic actuator that is connected to an internal shaft or plug that controls the flow path of the valve. The primary function to fail closed when any of the following occurs:

– Excess S&W

– Loss of power

– Loss of supply pressure

– Low level in the lease tank

– Meter failure condition

Ideal for LACT operations when customizing different sizes of sample pots.  This lid will can be supplied on standard 10 gallon, 15 gallon, or 30 gallon containers.  The K&L-310 holds up to 25 psig pressure.  The dome has an 8” access to aid in clean out and maintenance.  The K&L-310 comes standard with Buna-N o-ring seals and the lockable handle insures the integrity of your crude oil sample.

 An adjustable, diaphragm type, positive displacement sample regulating device that is designed to collect a precise amount of fluid each time a solenoid valve is actuated.

 

The outlet of the sample probe is connected to a three-way electric operated solenoid valve. The solenoid valve is also connected to the sample container and to the volume regulator.

 

When the LACT Unit is in operation and the sample solenoid is electrically actuated or "energized", the sample probe is connected to the volume regulator and fluid under line pressure is allowed to fill the volume regulator and compress the spring load assembly. As soon as the sampler solenoid is de-energized, the trapped fluid, under pressure, in the volume regulator is injected into the sample container using both the fluid trapped pressure and the spring load assistance of the volume regulator.

We now offer ASCO Actuators w/ our Divert Valves upon request!
