Harper Control Solutions Accomplishments:

• Rush project to provide service and support to NJ American Water on their emergency pipeline that was required as a result of the Bridge collapse at the Swimming River Reservoir.
• Assisted many water utility clients who were seeking more reliable control system and automatic control valves.
• Another rush project required technical review and selection of over 30 interconnection control valves that needed to be specified and delivered in short order.
• Worked with a large central NJ utility that was dealing with high maintenance unreliable control valves. This work included replacing 15 control valves and resulted in their operations being much easier to balance flow.
• Six Flags Great Adventure Filter Plant Upgrade.
• Replacing all pressure reducing valves in several municipal systems that experienced high maintenance and constant problems with their existing control valves.
• Worked with United Water when they designed system upgrades, new control valves, recharge well controls, as well as for valve service requirements.

Our service department has provided service and repair services on many different makes of control valves including Golden Anderson, Ross Valve, Bermad, OCV and Watts ACV. Contact Harper Solutions, to discuss your service needs.

Harper Control Solutions has introduced an air valve to many utilities that will last the lifetime of your piping system. Vent-Tech Air Valves are a permanent solution for utilities seeking long term, low maintenance solutions for automatic pipeline protection against the harmful effects of trapped air pockets.

Vent-Tech valves are quickly becoming the preferred valve for several reasons. All Vent-Tech valves have full port entrance/exit orifices. All Vent-Tech valves have, as standard, automatic surge control.

All valves are standard 304SS construction with optional 316SS or ABS plastic (sewer) and can include special formulated interior grease resistant lining. There are many more reason why utilities are replacing their air valves with Vent-Tech valves.  Isn’t it about time to stop throwing money on valves that really don’t do the job that you expect? Harper Control Solutions has the products that will make a big difference. Speak with one of our experts today.

Cla-Val products are well known in the water industry as reliable, versatile and ultra-low maintenance. We at Harper Control Solutions are proud to be a factory authorized representative for Cla-Val. Being the best control valve available is a shared goal that takes time and dedication and Cla-Val continues to develop and implement new products.

Some of the recent products from Cla-Val include VC22D Controller; X143 series hydro power generators and CTC-33 automatic flushing valve. This can be used on dead-end pipelines, and maintain clean safe water supply to critical eye wash stations. Contact us for a demo of the versatile VC22D Electronic Control/Data Logger. Let us know how we can help automate your control valves.

Harper Control Solutions continues to be a strong influence in the water industry. We are currently working on a large pump station project which requires tandem Charlatte Bladder Surge tanks. All recommended surge tanks are sized based on comprehensive hydraulic surge modeling. Surge tanks are used to remove the damaging pressure surges that are common in water pumping systems.

If you seek to protect your piping system against harmful pressure surges, contact us for a hydraulic surge analysis. Engineers who understand water hammer and considering pipeline ingress prevention know that a check valve or relief valve cannot protect your valuable piping network from transient surge waves associated with an unexpected pump trip. If you are experiencing pressure surges, call us today for a proven solution!
