KUNKLE 0337-H01ANM Safety Relief Valve, 2 Inch Inlet Size, Bronze, Non Code Air/Gas, 17-7 Stainless Steel

Kunkle 0337-H01ANM safety relief valve prevents overpressure situations in liquid and gas systems. It protects against potential catastrophic failure by automatically releasing excess pressure when it exceeds a predetermined level. This safety relief valve is useful in oil & gas refineries, chemical processing plants, power generation facilities and pharmaceutical manufacturing & HVAC systems.

Features:

• Kunkle 0337-H01ANM safety relief valve has a large nozzle design that can handle up to 60 psig.
• It has a warning ring that allows for easy adjustment for precise opening with minimal pre-open simmer and precise blower down control.
• It features a pivot between the disc and spring, which corrects misalignment and compensates for spring side thrust.
• This relief valve comes with a lift handle for easy manual testing.
• It protects low to medium-pressure blowers and compressors.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. What factors should be considered when sizing a safety relief valve?

A. Major factors include the maximum allowable working pressure (MAWP) of the system, the set pressure (the pressure at which the valve opens), the flow rate of the fluid or gas and the properties of the medium being handled (density & viscosity).

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

A. Generally, a safety relief valve is designed to protect against overpressure situations that could pose a significant safety hazard while a pressure relief valve may have a broader application, including pressure control and regulation in addition to overpressure protection.

Q. How to prevent common issues such as leakage or sticking of safety relief valves?

A.

• Ensure that the valves are properly installed and maintained.
• Exercise the valves periodically to prevent sticking and ensure free movement of internal components.
