A spring operated liquid relief valve available in all bronze, bronze with stainless steel trim or all stainless steel constructions.

Features

  • 480 is a bronze relief valve.
  • 485 is bronze with a renewable stainless steel seat and disc.
  • 490 is all stainless steel.
  • Spindle normally fitted with an ‘O’ ring to protect the spring, particularly on corrosive duties.

General Application
