Check Valve Series & Industrial Excess Flow Valves

Industrial Excess Flow Valves

SEFV Series

Inproduction
■ Excess Flow Valves are designed to limit flow of fluid to a predetermined rate.
■ When flow reaches a predetermined rate the poppet will trip, limiting or stopping flow.
■ When pressure is equalized across the valve, the poppet will reset to open.

Features
■ 2-piece body
- Allows for simple spring and seal maintenance
■ Spring-loaded actuation
■ Automatic reset
- The bleed vent allows the valve to automatically reset
■ Variety of end connections
- Can be assembled in any system or application
Stainless steel construction

Operation
■ The poppet is loaded by a spring in the open position during normal system operation.
■ If the system becomes unbalanced and the downstream pressure drops, the poppet rapidly move to the tripped position.
■ The poppet will remain in the tripped position until system pressure becomes equal across the bleed vent in the poppet.
■ The bleed vent in the poppet will allow the pressure to slowly equalize across the valve if the downstream line is closed or repaired.
■ When the system pressure becomes equal, the spring automatically reset the poppet to the open position.
