What is the maximum operating pressure of the BSP Bronze Pressure Relief Valve?
The BSP Bronze Pressure Relief Valve operates within a 50 to 2070 kPa pressure range. However, this range is further divided into 4 different spring ranges. So, for instance, if you wanted a pressure relief valve that would open at 500 kPa, you would choose the 276 to 899 kPa range as your pressure setting is within this range.
-
What is the maximum operating temperature for the Bronze Pressure Relief Valve?
The BSP Bronze Pressure Relief Valve is designed to function effectively at temperatures up to 200°C.
-
What type of threads do the inlet and outlet have?
The inlet has male BSP threads while the outlet has female BSP threads.
-
Can the outlet of the Bronze Pressure Relief Valve be connected in different orientations?
Yes, the valve has a right-angle discharge, allowing flexible installation options to suit various piping layouts.
-
Is the outlet size the same as the inlet size on the BSP Bronze Pressure Relief Valve?

Can the BSP Bronze Pressure Relief Valve be used in high-temperature applications above 200°C?
No, the maximum operating temperature for the BSP Bronze Pressure Relief Valve is 200°C. Using it beyond this temperature may compromise its integrity and performance.
-
What should I do if my Bronze Pressure Relief Valve discharges continuously?
Continuous discharging indicates the system pressure is consistently above the valve's set range. Steps to take:
- Check System Pressure: Ensure it does not exceed the valve's maximum operating pressure.
- Inspect for Blockages: Verify no obstructions in the inlet or outlet.
- Assess Valve Functionality: The valve may be faulty and require maintenance or replacement.
- Consult a Professional: If the issue persists, seek assistance from a qualified technician.
-
Is the Bronze Pressure Relief Valve suitable for liquid and gas applications?
Yes, the pressure relief valve can handle both gas and liquids; however, compatibility must be verified based on the specific application requirements.
-
