KUNKLE 6010FEM01-KM-150 Safety Relief Valve 1 Inch x 1-1/4 Inch 150 Psi

Kunkle 6010FEM01-KM-150 safety relief valve is used on a steam boiler and generator, rotary equipment, reciprocating, portable or stationary air / gas compressor, aftercooler and intercooler. It is applicable for pressure vessels containing steam, air or non-hazardous gas and on a pressure-reducing station.

Working Mechanism:

• When the system pressure surpasses the set limit,
• The safety relief valve's disc is lifted.
• This lifting action allows excess fluid or gas to escape through the outlet.
• Once the pressure normalises, the disc reseats.
• This prevents further discharge, ensuring the safety of the system.

Features:

• It is equipped with an MNPT inlet and an FNPT outlet for ease of installation in industrial setups.
• This Emerson safety relief valve features a bronze body and B21 alloy 485 discs for leakproof operations and enhanced corrosion resistance.
• It comes with a metal seat and stainless steel spring.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. What factors should I consider while choosing a safety relief valve?

A.

• Consider the specific pressure and temperature conditions of your system.
• Choose a valve designed for your specific application, whether it's for steam boilers, pressure vessels, or air/gas compressors.
• Ensure the valve's construction material is compatible with the fluid or gas it will handle.
• Opt for valves with adjustable features to achieve precise control over opening, pre-open, simmer and blowdown.

Q. How do I check for leaks in Kunkle 6010FEM01-KM-150 safety relief valve?

A.

• Inspect the valve and surrounding area for any visible signs of leaks.
• Listen for unusual hissing or escaping sounds around the valve.
• Feel for any moisture or unusual warmth near the valve.
• Perform a soap and water solution test on connections, observing for bubbles indicating leaks.
• If uncertain, consult a professional for a thorough inspection.

Q. How Kunkle 6010FEM01-KM-150 safety relief valve is adjusted?

A.

• The adjustment of this valve is facilitated by the presence of dual control rings.
• These dual control rings contribute to easy adjustability for precise opening.
• They minimise pre-open or simmering, ensuring controlled and efficient operation.
• The dual control rings also provide exact blowdown control, enhancing the valve's overall performance.

Q. Is this safety relief valve leakproof?

A. Yes, Kunkle 6010FEM01-KM-150 safety relief valve has O-ring seats available for leak-free performance, reduced maintenance cost, improved seating integrity and multiple cycles with tight shutoff.
