Yarway 9100 Series ARC Valve

For Centrifugal Pump Protection

A self-contained system, the 9100 Series ARC valve


requires no instrument signal or power source.

General Description
The 9100 Series ARC provides reliable,
economical protection for centrifugal
pumps against the serious damage from
overheating and instability that can result
from even a few minutes of low flow. By
providing recirculation flow to the inlet of
the pump, the 9100 ARC helps ensure a
minimum flow for stable pump operation.
The modulating 9100 ARC creates
operating economies in several ways. The
ARC recirculates only the flow required
to help ensure a minimum flow through
the pump at all times. Under full process
main flow demand, recirculation flow is
not required. But as the process main flow
demand decreases, recirculation becomes
necessary. Unlike continuous
recirculation, the ARC responds directly
to this need. The use of an ARC valve
eliminates the need to oversize the pump
and prime mover. Such oversizing adds
significantly to the capital cost of the
pump and prime mover as well as to the
cost of energy needed for operation.
An ARC valve also saves most of the
costs of a conventional multiple
component flow control loop because the
valve itself is a completely self-contained
system: it is a flow sensing orifice; a check
valve; a recirculation control valve and a
pressure letdown device. As a selfcontained system, it requires no instrument
signal or power source, or any of the
associated maintenance.
Manufactured and tested in the USA,
the 9100 ARC is one of an entire family
of ARC (automatic recirculation control)
valves. These valves have delivered
consistent and reliable service for over
three decades. In the USA alone, more
than 15,000 ARC valves have been
installed in power plants, refineries,
and chemical plants.

seals, packless design (no stuffing
boxes), no leak path to atmosphere, and
no electrical wiring.

Feature
Certified Test Curve supplied with each
valve lot.

Benefit

Benefit
The valve is ideal for broad pumping
applications in the hydrocarbon industry.

Assures reliable performance from every


valve.

Feature

Eliminates multiple vendors of


components.

Totally mechanical self-powered design


with no linkages, control signals, pilot
valves, etc. that require maintenance.

Eliminates cavitation in the valving and


piping.

Benefit

Only three pipe connections.

Operation

The disc is shown in the closed position


in Figure 1. In this position there is no
process flow and the bypass is fully open.
This protects the pump against planned
or accidental dead heading which can
result from a closed down stream pump
isolation valve or process control valve.

assembly and is controlled by


characterized orifices inside the disc
stem. Flow continues through an
annulus in the bypass bushing and is
directed to the outlet of the valve.
The valve provides for single phase
flow in the bypass, eliminating the
possibility of flashing or cavitation. This
is accomplished by the valve design,
and if necessary, external back pressure
regulator.

When the disc is set at full lift position,


as in Figure 3, the bypass is closed.
As process flow decreases, the reverse
action occurs and the recirculation flow
again increases. Flow enters the bypass
element at the bottom of the disc

As the disc lifts (Figure 2) in response to


an increase in flow to the process, the
bypass element which is integral to the
disc, closes the bypass flow orifices
reducing recirculation flow. Recirculation
flow is controlled with disc position. This
modulation feature assures that the total
of process flow and recirculation flow
exceed the minimum flow through the
pump as specified by the pump
manufacturer.

The heart of the recirculation valve is a


main flow sensing check valve disc,
which is flow sensitive, not pressure
sensitive. The disc modulates to the
demand for process flow at the same
time helping ensure a minimum flow
through the pump. This modulating
characteristic results in a consistent,
stable, and repeatable performance over
full pressure range.

The cost of the electricity consumed in


continuous recirculation cooling is
significantly higher than many people
realize. For example, the manufacturer of a
1200 gpm pump with a discharge head of
500 feet, may require 400 gpm recirculated

flow to keep it cool (Figure 4). Continuously


pumping 400 gpm against a 500-foot head
requires 65 horsepower. In a 10/kwh
power cost area, total annual cost savings
using an ARC valve would be $48,000
(Figure 5).

Yarway 9100 Series ARC Valve


For Centrifugal Pump Protection

Back Pressure Regulator (BPR)


reduced, the orifice becomes less effective.
Proper system design should be used to
optimize valve pressure reduction and
consider all fluid dynamic effects
downstream of any pressure reducing
device.

In high pressure pumping applications the


system often does not provide adequate
pressure in the bypass line to prevent
cavitation or flashing. Either of these
conditions is undesirable in that it can
cause damage to both valves and the pipe
system or cause a reduction in flow beyond
the minimum desired, jeopardizing the
pump protection system. All PRVs will
experience a velocity induced recovery
effect which will limit the amount of
pressure drop a valve can take and cause a
reduction in flow capacity.
The requirement of back pressure is
generic to all pressure reducing
applications. Pressure reduction even by
multiple stage cascading such as in the
7100 Series ARC can minimize the
requirement, however no valve design will
redefine a fluids physical properties.
This becomes especially important in
modulating systems. A fixed orifice will not
provide the proper back pressure at all flow
levels. As the flow in the bypass line is

When adequate back pressure is not


available downstream of a pressure
reducing valve, vapor bubbles will form in
the zone just downstream of the valve last
stage control surface. This zone is defined
as the Vena Contracta and represents the
point of highest fluid velocity and lowest
pressure. The potential for 1) damage to
downstream piping components and 2) flow
reduction exists from this point. When line
pressure remains below the fluid vapor
pressure, any existing bubbles will remain
and expand as piping friction further
reduces line pressure. This can be defined
as a FLASHING CONDITION and is
characterized by a polished appearance on
affected surfaces. When the line pressure
drops below the fluid vapor pressure and

then recovers, any entrapped vapor bubbles


will collapse (implode). This is defined as a
CAVITATING CONDITION and is
characterized by a cinder like appearance
on affected surfaces. The resolution of
either condition is best addressed by
eliminating vapor formation. This can be
assured by the provision of adequate back
pressure. The Back Pressure Factor is
key to reliable system operation and must
not be ignored in piping design
considerations.
As such we feel it is the obligation of a
responsible Automatic Recirculation
Control Valve manufacturer to analyze the
system needs and supply a Back Pressure
Regulator (BPR) when it is warranted by
the laws of fluid dynamics. For on/off
systems this could be a simple orifice, but
for modulating conditions it must be a
device like the BPR noted herein.
