APOLLO VALVES 523EDBKMAA0500 Pop Safety Valve 3/4 x 1-1/4in 500psi

Apollo 523EDBKMAA0500 pop safety valve is a pressure relief valve designed to automatically open and release excess pressure from a system to prevent overpressurisation and potential damage. It is used in the manufacturing, chemical processing, HVAC and oil & gas industries.

Features:

• It features a bronze body for structural rigidity.
• This valve has stainless steel springs that provide durability and reliability.
• Its metal seats offer robust sealing properties that prevent leaks and maintain pressure integrity under different operating conditions.
• This valve has 316 stainless steel discs that provide superior corrosion resistance and durability.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. What factors should be considered when selecting this Apollo 500 Series relief valve?

A. Major factors include the operating pressure and temperature of the system, the flow rate required for pressure relief, compatibility with the fluid or gas being handled and compliance with relevant industry standards and regulations.

Q. How often should pop safety valves be tested and maintained?

A. Pop safety valves should be tested and maintained regularly according to manufacturer recommendations and industry standards to ensure proper functioning and reliability in case of an overpressure event.

Q. What are the differences between a pop safety valve and a pressure relief valve?

A. The main differences between a pop safety valve and a pressure relief valve are in their operation and response to pressure build-up. A pop safety valve is designed to rapidly release pressure once the set pressure is reached, providing a quick and full opening to relieve pressure incompressible fluid systems. On the other hand, a pressure relief valve is more gradual in its response, regulating pressure increases by slowly releasing pressure over time and reseating once the pressure drops below the set point. Additionally, pop safety valves are commonly used in compressible fluids, while pressure relief valves are more often used in incompressible fluids.
