Protect equipment, and your budget!

All Smart Products valves may be used as relief valves.

Pressure relief valves perform the vital role of limiting the air or fluid pressure or vacuum in a system. Designed to open at a predetermined pressure, relief valves protect your system from over or under pressurization.

When the safe pressure of a system is exceeded, the relief valve opens and air or fluid is diverted through this auxiliary route – thus protecting your system from pressure that has exceeded the safe pressure range.

Once the pressure reaches safe levels the relief valve will close allowing normal operation of the system to continue, with the relief valve ready to operate again.

Pressure relief valves are also known as vacuum relief valves, blow-off valves, pop-off valves, pressure regulating valves, safety valves, and purge valves.

All Smart Products check valves are ideal for use as pressure relief valves and offer the following advantages:

      • Customizable pressure or vacuum settings through spring selection
      • Wide range of sizes, types, and materials to meet your application needs
      • Easy to install, with Barbed, NPT, Standard, and O-ring side seal styles available
      • Low cost alternative to adjustable pressure regulators
      • Great alternative to metal valves in many corrosive environments

With our custom design and assembly capabilities, special testing, and over 3 million possible combinations from which to choose, we're sure to have just the right configuration to meet your needs. Our wide range of plastic, o-ring, and spring materials allow you to design your own “custom pressure relief valve”…without a custom price.

Key Features:
  • Our wide range of plastic, o-ring, and spring materials and check valve styles can be combined in over 3 million configurations. This means that you can use our standard components to custom design a valve to meet your specific requirements…without a custom price.
  • Most Smart check valves incorporate a low inertia poppet design with double-tapered o-ring seats to achieve a fast, positive seal in ultra low pressure applications.
  • Check valve model #101 is the smallest of its kind and features a silicon ball seal and newly patented technology.
  • Operating temperatures range from sub-zero to 250°F, depending on materials specified.
  • The thermoplastic materials used in these check valves provide improved corrosion resistance and make them a superior alternative to comparable metal valves.
