KUNKLE 0330-A01-KC5000 Safety Relief Valve 1/4 Inch 5000 Psi Aluminium

Kunkle 0330-A01-KC5000 safety relief valve prevents overpressure in equipment like boilers, pressure vessels and pipelines. By releasing excess pressure, it safeguards against potential explosions or system failures. This 5000 psi relief valve's capacity to automatically open at a predetermined pressure threshold and discharge the surplus pressure makes it a vital component in maintaining the integrity and security of diverse processes and equipment.

Working Mechanism:

• Internal pressure pushes against the stainless steel disc, attempting to open the valve.
• Robust steel spring counters internal pressure, keeping the valve closed.
• At 5000 psi, the internal pressure overcomes spring tension.
• PTFE disc lifts, allowing pressurised the fluid / gas to escape.
• Fluid / gas exits rapidly through the outlet, reducing pressure.
• Valve closes when pressure drops below the set level.
• Normal operating conditions resume, ensuring safety.

Features:

• Kunkle 0330-A01-KC5000 safety relief valve features aluminium construction, making it lightweight with exceptional strength.
• It has a stainless steel seat, ensuring a durable sealing surface that can withstand high-pressure conditions and corrosive environments.
• This 5000 psi relief valve has a PTFE disc for a tight and reliable seal, preventing any leakage even in demanding industrial settings.
• It is equipped with a steel spring that maintains the valve in a closed position until the preset pressure is reached, ensuring dependable pressure relief activation.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. What is the difference between a pressure relief and a pressure-reducing valve?

A. The pressure relief valve is attached between the DCV and the branch circuit, whereas a pressure-reducing valve is connected between the pump and the tank line.

Q. What is the difference between safety valves and relief valves?

A. Relief valves protect equipment from overpressurised state and prevent system failures, whereas safety valves are pressure valves aimed to protect personnel, property and operational processes.

Q. What is the purpose of a test lever in the relief valve?

A. The temperature and pressure relief valve comes with a test lever that allows pressure checks during operation.
