When the pump operates and the valve supplies water downstream, the solenoid pilot valve fully opens while the needle valve is adjusted to an appropriate opening. Water from upstream enters the main valve control chamber through the needle valve and check valve, then flows out via the solenoid pilot valve. At this point, the pressure in the main valve control chamber maintains the main valve at an optimal opening, ensuring normal water supply downstream.
When the pump stops operating, the solenoid pilot valve closes first, halting drainage from the main valve control chamber. Pressure within the control chamber rises, initiating closure of the main valve. Upon reaching 90% closure, the upper limit switch of the main valve outputs a pump-stop signal, halting pump operation. At this point, downstream return water flows through the check valve into the main valve control chamber. As control chamber pressure increases, the main valve closes completely.
