Valve With Test Lever

For Use With: Air, Inert Gas
Temperature Range: See table

To protect against damage in air lines, air receivers, compressor tanks, and other air-powered equipment, these valves spring fully open at the set pressure and remain open until the system pressure is restored below the set pressure. All meet ASME Code Section VIII for use with air and inert gas pressure vessels. They have a vented relief port to exhaust discharge directly.

Valves with a nickel-plated brass body are more corrosion resistant than valves with a plain brass body.

Silicone seals provide better leak protection than brass seals.

Adjustable Fast-Acting Pressure-Relief Valves for Air and Inert Gas

For Use With: Air, Inert Gas
Temperature Range: -15° to 250° F

Change set pressure to suit your application—this valve includes four interchangeable color-coded springs with different set pressure ranges. Remove the adjustment screw to change springs; turn the screw to alter the set pressure within the range. The valve springs fully open at the set pressure and remains open until the system pressure is restored below the set pressure. It has a vented relief port to exhaust discharge directly.

For Use With: Air
Temperature Range: -15° to 250° F

Attach a pressure gauge to the 1/4 NPT female port on these valves. They spring fully open at the set pressure and remain open until the system pressure is restored below the set pressure. All have a vented relief port to exhaust discharge directly.

Valves with an air-fill (Schrader) valve let you quickly fill and empty compressed air tanks.

Valves with a switch port allow you to install a pressure switch for activating alarms and other equipment when pressure exceeds the set point.
