APOLLO VALVES 511DCBKMAA0175 Pop Safety Valve, 1/2 x 1 Inch Size, 175 Psi

Apollo 511DCBKMAA0175 pop safety valve is used in boilers, pressure vessels and pipelines to prevent overpressure situations. It safeguards equipment and systems by releasing excess pressure when it exceeds a predetermined level, thus preventing potential damage or accidents. This valve offers safe operating conditions and complies with industry safety standards during critical pressure regulation.

Working Mechanism:

• When system pressure increases beyond safe limits, it lifts the valve's disc and open the valve.
• This allows the pressurised fluid or gas to escape, lowering the pressure.
• As pressure decreases, the disc reseats due to spring force.
• The pressure is then relieved, preventing equipment damage or accidents.
• The valve resets automatically or the user can manually reset it for future overpressure events.

Features:

• This pop safety valve has an inlet size of 1/2 inches and comes with an outlet size of 1 inches for a larger flow path, ensuring efficient fluid or gas movement.
• This safety pop off valve features bronze construction, providing increased durability and corrosion resistance.
• It is integrated with an MNPT inlet and FNPT outlet, allowing easy connection and secure attachment to other threaded components.
• This pop safety valve is equipped with a 316 stainless steel disc and spring, contributing to an increased lifespan and optimum performance.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. What's the factory-set pressure of this Apollo 511DCBKMAA0175 pop safety valve and does Raptor Supplies offer pop safety valves with lower factory-set pressure?

A. The factory set pressure of Apollo 511DCBKMAA0175 pop safety valve is 175 psi. Customers searching for variants with lower factory-set pressure can opt for 511DCDKMAA0150, 511DDDKMAA0150 and 511EDBKMAA0150 pop safety valves having factory set pressure of 150 psi each.

Q. How do I determine leakages in this pop safety valve?

A.

• Check for visible signs of fluid or gas around valve connections and joints.
• Listen for unusual hissing sounds that might indicate escaping fluid or gas.
• Apply soapy water to valve connections. Bubbles indicate leaks.
• Increase pressure slightly and monitor for pressure drop, suggesting a leak.

Q. What factors should I consider while choosing a pop safety valve?

A.

• Operating pressure range
• Set pressure
