Pressure-Regulating Valves for Steam
- For Use With: Steam
- Temperature Range: -20° to 400° F
Automatically reduce a high, variable inlet pressure in your steam system to a lower, stable outlet pressure. Adjust the outlet pressure within the range. These valves have a cast iron body that absorbs vibration from pressure changes to reduce wear and noise in your pipeline.
Internal strainers trap debris.

ASME-Code Fast-Acting Pressure-Relief Valves for Steam
- For Use With: Steam
- Temperature Range: -60° to 400° F
These valves meet ASME Code Section I for use with steam power boilers requiring pressure relief above 15 psi. They spring fully open at the set pressure and remain open until the system pressure is restored below the set pressure. For remote discharge, attach a drain line to the threaded relief port. Valves have a durable bronze body for a long service life.
EPR rubber seals provide better leak protection than brass seals.
Swivel test levers rotate 360° around the valve for use in areas with limited clearance.

Pressure-Relief Airlocks
Vent carbon dioxide and other gases out of your container without letting dust, oxygen, and other contaminants in. Fill these airlocks with water or a sanitizing solution and they form a liquid seal. They’re often used in fermentation, such as beer and wine making, as well as other jobs where chemical reactions or temperature changes produce gas inside your container. A cap blocks out dust even as it vents the gas.
Push these airlocks into flasks, carboys, and other containers that have a rubber stopper with a hole. The airlocks come apart in three pieces for easy and thorough cleaning—no need for specially shaped brushes to reach every crevice.

Vacuum-Breaking Valves
Also known as vacuum breakers, these valves have vents that open when pressure drops to relieve vacuum conditions and prevent backward suction from drawing liquid into upstream piping.
303 stainless steel valves have the best corrosion resistance.
Straights are often used with steam coils, heat exchangers, and space heaters.
