Product OverviewThis hydraulically operated, piston‑actuated quick pressure relief valve relieves excessive system pressure when pressure rises above a preset value. The valve opens fully on pressure surge for immediate, repeatable response and provides smooth, drip‑tight closing.
Features & Benefits- Hydraulically operated, piston actuated — suitable for high‑pressure service
- Line‑pressure driven for independent operation
- Simple, low‑accessory design for straightforward maintenance
- In‑line serviceable to reduce downtime
- Double‑chamber design for moderated reaction and closing curve
- Semi‑straight flow / obstacle‑free full bore to minimise turbulence and pressure loss
- Stainless steel raised seat for cavitation resistance
- Optional V‑Port throttling plug for stable performance at low flow
Typical Applications- Pressure‑reducing systems — protection against pressure rise during sudden demand stoppage or failures
- Older pipe networks — installed at sensitive points and line ends to protect against bursts during pressure surges
- Pumping stations — protection against water hammer and cavitation, optimisation of pump operation
