The BERMAD Model FP 730-59 combines fire pump relief with a pre-opening feature to anticipate pump start-up surge. The valve opens fully by means of an electric override upon the start-up and continues to perform as a pressure relief valve. The valve offers reliable performance for high capacity fire pump systems.
