50B-4KG1 (Globe)
The CLA-VAL Model 50B-4KG1 Globe / 2050B-4KG1

Angle Pressure Relief Valve is designed specifically to
automatically relieve excess pressure in fire protection
pumping systems. Pilot controlled, it maintains constant
system pressure at the pump discharge within very
close limits as demands change.

Typical Application
Operation Sequence:
At pump start, CLA-VAL Relief Valve modulates to
relieve excess pump capacity, maintaining positive
system pressure at the pump discharge.
When fire demand slows or ceases, CLA-VAL Model
50B-4KG1 opens, diverting entire pump output to
discharge, allowing fire pump to be stopped without
causing surging in the lines.
Fire Pump
(Please note that if the Model 50B-4KG1 is to be

used on a continuous duty basis to maintain firesystem pressure, suitable back pressure must be
provided on the valve to prevent cavitation damage.
Consult the factory for details.)

Purchase Specifications
The Fire Pump Pressure Relief Valve shall modulate to relieve excess pressure in a fire protection system. It shall maintain
constant pressure in the system regardless of demand changes. It shall be pilot controlled and back pressure shall not affect
its set point. It shall be actuated by line pressure through a pilot control system and open fast in order to maintain steady
system pressure as system demand decreases. It shall close gradually to control surges and shall re-seat drip-tight within
5% of its pressure setting. The main valve shall be of the hydraulically-operated, pilot-controlled, diaphragm-type, globe or
angle valve. It shall have a single, removable, Teflon-coated seat, a grooved stem guided at both ends, and a resilient disc
with a rectangular cross section, being contained on 3 1/2 sides. No external packing glands shall be permitted and the
diaphragm shall not be used as a seating surface. The pilot control shall be a direct-acting, adjustable, spring-loaded,
diaphragm-type valve designed for modulating service to permit flow when controlling pressure exceeds spring setting. This
valve shall be UL Listed and Factory Mutual approved. It shall be the Model 50B-4KG1 (globe) or Model 2050B-4KG1
(angle) Pressure Relief Valve as manufactured by CLA-VAL Europe.
Special Note: The Model 50B-4KG1 Pressure Relief Valve is available with 300# ANSI inlet flange and 150# ANSI outlet
flange. This valve is used on higher pressure systems where 300# flange connections are required, and allows for adapting
of a discharge cone (generally supplied with 150# flange) to accommodate "atmospheric break" at relief valve discharge.
This relief valve, with 300# / 150# flanges is available on special order, and is UNDERWRITERS LABORATORIES LISTED
AND FACTORY MUTUAL APPROVED.
