DuoPort® Pressure Relief
Valve Manifolds for small storage containers |
|
|
|
Application |
|
Designed especially for use as a primary relief
device on smaller stationary storage containers, with 2" NPT threaded
couplings. These manifolds allow servicing or replacement of either of
the two relief valves without evacuating the container or loss of
service. The operating lever selectively closes off the entrance port
to the relief valve being removed while the remaining valve provides
protection for the container and its contents. The rating of each
manifold is based on actual flow through the manifold and a single
pressure relief valve, taking friction loss into account. It is not
merely the rating of the relief valve alone. |
|
|
|
Features |
 |
Allows for relief valve removal and
replacement on a periodic basis without shutting down and
evacuating the container. |
 |
Unique seat ring assemblies provide a
smooth tubular section to preclude turbulence and assure
more efficient flow capacity. |
 |
Operating lever is only locked in the
mid-position or in a position to seal either relief valve.
Placement of the clapper disc in an intermediate position
could restrict flow through one of the relief valves,
causing it to chatter and destroy the resilient seat disc.
|
 |
A rubber plug with chain is provided to
protect manifold outlet threads where the relief valve has
been removed. |
 |
“Pop-action” design insures maximum
protection with only minimal product loss at moderately
excessive pressures. |
 |
Resilient relief valve seat disc provides
“bubble-tight” seal. |
 |
Relief valves are ASME rated for use with
LP-Gas and anhydrous ammonia. |
