model steam safety valve for sale

After a boiler has been engineered, built and tested for a given operating pressure there is only one reliable way to prevent operation of the boiler above this design pressure.  This is a safety valve.  The safety valve should be sized so that a single valve can handle the maximum steam production rate of the boiler and once open prevent boiler pressure to continue to rise.  Standard operating procedure for the last century has been to install two safety valves on the boiler, one set 3-5 lbs below the design pressure and one valve set at the design pressure.

The 1st valve listed below is a true adjustable differential pop valve.  The differential is adjured through the differential rings lock screw hole, from 3 PSI to whatever the operator desires.  The pressure of the valve can be adjusted from 40 to 200 PSI.

The other valves listed are adjustable for release pressure and have a "pop" action:  The pressure differential is not adjustable on these valves.  If the valves are operated above their nominal pressure, the set-reset differential increases.  If operated at lower pressure, the differential decreases to the point of disappearing about 10-15% below nominal pressure.

These safety valves use a stainless steel ball and spring in a brass body. They are set to blow at approximately 60psi. Threaded 5/16-27 Female (1/16 NPT).

Note: these have simple adjustable spring loaded relief balls/surfaces that progressively release pressure when the setting is passed. They are not "pop"valves that trigger at a set pressure.

Choose these valves for small steam-heating boilers requiring pressure relief between 5 psi and 12 psi. They spring fully open at the set pressure and remain open until the system pressure is restored below the set pressure. All have a bronze body for durability and a long service life.

Kunkle Relief Valve OverviewWhen it comes to industrial and commercial safety and relief valve products, Kunkle’s valve’s catalog is second to none in steam, air, gas, and liquid applications.

Kunkle relief valves range in size from ¼” NPT to 6” flange and are suitable in cryogenic and high temperatures up to 800°F environments at vacuum to 7,500 psig pressure. Kunkle Valve’s code certifications meet several global and national board standards, including ASME Section I, Section IV, and Section VIII, PED, CRN, TU and Chinese, as well as non-code requirements.

Relief Valves for Steam ServiceSteam supplies heat for industrial and chemical processes and also is used to heat buildings, supply mechanical energy, and drive mechanical equipment. Steam moves from the boiler to the end point, then heats by direct heating or indirect heating through a heat exchanger. Kunkle steam relief valves are critical to protecting equipment such as boilers, steam lines, and pressure valves, from being over-pressurized.

Relief Valves for Air ServiceKunkle designs valves for air service, for example for air compressors in mechanical shops and small factories where either low-pressure or high-pressure air is required. NASVI stocks Kunkle relief valves for air service in iron, steel and bronze for a variety of uses.

Relief Valves for Liquid ServiceKunkle also makes valves for liquid service, which provide bypass relief in a variety of applications and liquid types.

More About KunkleKunkle Valve is a renowned pressure relief valve manufacturer. Erastus B. Kunkle invented the safety valve to prevent overpressure in locomotive engines. Kunkle patented it in 1875. Since that time, Kunkle has earned its reputation for high-quality valves, and other equipment manufacturers ship their products with Kunkle’s valves pre-installed.

NASVI has stocked Kunkle safety relief valves since we opened in 1975, so we are confident when we call ourselves Kunkle safety valve experts. Every day we fulfill orders for our customers looking for Kunkle relief valves for steam, air, gas, and liquid applications.
