Pressure relief valve,

Plastic

Construction
The pressure relief valves GEMÜ N085 and N185 protect the plant and the
piping system against gauge pressure and reduces pressure peaks. The
third pipe spigot enables the valve to be installed in the main pipe. If the
pressure increases, the spring is raised and the valve opens. The pressure
is reduced to the preset value and can escape via the third pipe spigot into
an adjacent pipe. If the pressure falls, the spring force presses the
diaphragm in the direction of the seal seat and it is closed. The spring
force can be adjusted as required using a set screw.

Technical specifications*
• Nominal sizes: DN 10 to DN 100
• Connections: Spigots, flanges, union ends with insert
• Body materials: PVC-U, PP-B, PVDF
• Seal materials: EPDM, PTFE
• Media temperature: -20 °C to +100 °C
• Setting range: 0.5 to 10 bar

Advantages
• Valve adjustments can also be made under working pressure.
• The optimization of piston, springs and control face ensures good
control characteristics.
• The actuator is hermetically separated from the medium.

*Dependent on version and/or operating parameters
