A Division of McWANE, Inc
    Daniel Kennedy starts making gate valves in a shop on Gold Street in lower Manhattan.
    To provide larger manufacturing facilities, the plant is moved to Coxsackie, New York. The D.Kennedy firm 		
    becomes the Kennedy Valve Manufacturing Co.
    The Kennedy Valve business continues to develop rapidly and a larger, more modern plant is built on a 20- acre
    site in Elmira, New York - now 52.59 acres.
    Kennedy Valve expands with the addition of a brass foundry.
    The plant receives three Maritime Commission awards to manufacture eight million valves for the Victory Fleet.

OPERATING PRINCIPLE
Under normal conditions, when the water level in the reservoir is lower than the preset altitude, the valve is
open. When the water level rises the pressure head under the pilot’s membrane rises consequently. When
the water reaches its maximum pre set level the pressure overcomes the pilot’s spring. The pilot’s membrane
moves upwards and connects the control chamber to line pressure. The valve fully closes. When the water level
in the reservoir drops again, the valve’s control chamber drains to the atmosphere through the pilot’s vent. Line
pressure supply is closed in parallel. The valve fully opens due to line pressure.

The pilot is Normally Open (N.O.) pilot. Once pipeline pressure is built downstream of the main valve,it will be
conveyed to the pilot’s membrane through the sensor port. When the pressure surpasses the set point (pre
adjusted through the pilot’s adjusting screw) the membrane moves upwards and water passage closes, closing
the main valve. When the downstream pressure reduces below the pilot’s set                  point, the membrane moves
downwards and opening the water passage and allowing the main valve to open.
OPERATING PRINCIPLE
Pilot is activated by line pressure and controlled by a pilot valve.
The Pilot includes a spring-loaded membrane, which is exposed to line pressure. The displacement of the membrane
due to a rise of line pressure against the spring force changes the water flow inside the pilot.
In normal flow regime, the valve is closed. When the line pressure is higher than the preset value valve is piloted to
open.
This head loss is transferred to the opposite sides of the pilot’s membrane, which moves upward or downward
accordingly. These movements open or close the inner ports of the pilot valve, directing the line pressure to control
the valve.
The dual solenoid valve interfaces with the controller to provide electronic control of flow rate, pressure or level.
Its provides precise control remotely with minimal power. This control loop also has manual controls in case of
emergency. The flow in and out of the upper operating chamber of the main valves is controlled by the two
pilot solenoids. The electronic control determines whether to open or close the solenoid valve. The change in
valve position is dependent upon which solenoid is operated and the duration of the energized period.
The electronic control determines the valve function. Virtually any hydraulic function can be achieved using
the “open-close” output from the SCADA controller to the valve.
3 Y Strainer Brass
Plunger control valve has unique benefits that make the valve
specifically suitable for the more special and severe service
control applications.
Axial flow designs are streamlined annular flow path and evenly
distributed flow through the cage – this reduces highlocal
velocities, turbulence and impacts of flow jets and particles.
This is fundamental for reliable valve performancebecause
vibration, erosion and unbalanced flow and forces are avoided.
HIGH CAPACITY
The inherent capacity of the axial control valve is very high
compared to conventional globe control valve designs and
enables the selection of a smaller valve size. Alternatively, higher
capacity can be used to minimize pressure drop over the valve
or to provide for special features, such as a modified control
characteristic, additional noise abatement, anti-cavitation or a
wider operating envelope for future process changes.
TRIM SELECTION
A wide variety of trims for liquid applications are available,
single-stage cages with high capacity and low noise capabilities.
All trims can be provided with linear or equal% control
characteristics.
