About Apollo Valve 14-200 Series Bronze Safety Relief
This Apollo Valve 14-200 series relief valve is a high-capacity steam safety valve. It has a cast bronze body, a 15 pounds per square inch (psi) relief pressure, a 3" male National Pipe Thread (NPT) inlet connection and 3" female NPT outlet, and a polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) coated disc. The valve's body and nozzle are brass and the spring is steel for resistance to corrosion. The seat is a PTFE-coated EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) O-ring for positive seal, resistance to high temperatures, and positive drainage of condensate from the seat area. The valve has a 3/8" NPT side tapping for drain connection and can be used in operating temperatures up to 250 degrees F. This relief valve is American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) safety rated for Section IV heating boilers and is suitable for use with medium and large size commercial and industrial heating boilers. Relief valves remove excess pressure or vacuum from a system. The valve openings allow fluids or gases to escape to decrease pressure, and then close once the valve reaches the reseating pressure limit. They also relieve excess vacuum by opening to release a gas into the system and then closing after it reaches its low-pressure limit. Some relief valves have an adjustment mechanism to set the pressure where the valve opens, making it suitable for various applications. Relief valves are rated according to the volume of liquid or gas that can flow through them and the material that the valve is constructed from must be suitable for the fluid or gas, which may be corrosive or at an extreme temperature, in which it operates. Relief valves are used in a variety of applications, such as air compressors, petrochemical and chemical manufacturing, natural gas processing, and power generation. Apollo Valves manufactures ball, mixing, and relief valves, actuators, water gauges, marine fittings, heating and plumbing products, and backflow prevention. The company, founded in 1928 and headquartered in Matthews, NC, meets international standard International Organization for Standardization (ISO)/IEC standard 17025:2005.
