Description

The 454405 Relief Valve by Blackmer is a safety and pressure regulation component designed for use with positive displacement and sliding vane pumps.

This relief valve is constructed from durable materials, including high-quality metal alloys that resist corrosion and wear over extended use. It features a pressed-in seat and a spring-loaded mechanism for precise pressure control, with a typical pressure setting range of 50 to 150 PSI, depending on specific system requirements.

The physical dimensions of the 454405 Relief Valve include a body length of approximately 3.5 inches, a diameter of 1.5 inches at the inlet and outlet ports, and a maximum operating temperature of 200°F. The valve weighs approximately 0.42 pounds, facilitating straightforward installation and maintenance.

Key features of this relief valve include a ¼-inch NPT inlet and outlet connections, a stainless steel spring for durability, and an easy access adjustment screw. It is designed to open and release excess pressure automatically when system pressure exceeds preset limits, thereby protecting equipment from potential damage.

This 454405 Relief Valve is suitable for use in industrial pumping systems, chemical processing, and any application where positive displacement or sliding vane pumps operate under variable pressure conditions. It ensures system safety and prevents overpressure situations, making it ideal for maintenance professionals, pump operators, and system integrators aiming to uphold safety standards.

The relief valve ships with the main valve assembly included; however, additional mounting hardware and pressure gauges are not included and must be purchased separately.

Care instructions for the 454405 Relief Valve recommend inspecting the valve periodically for signs of corrosion or wear, cleaning with compatible solvents if necessary, and replacing the spring or seat components if the relief pressure deviates from specifications. The valve is warranted against manufacturing defects for one year from purchase date.
