Bypass valve

Advertisement

The EBSRAY Model RV26 BYPASS VALVE is a
spring actuated pump and system protection device
that by design cannot be positively shut-off. With the
VRS option, It also provides for controlled and rapid
'bleed-off' of vapour. This enhances the self priming
capabilities of the pump. The valve is installed in the
pump discharge system and normally returns flow to
the supply vessel.
PRIOR TO ANY DISASSEMBLY OR SERVICE, VERIFY THAT ALL REQUIREMENTS OF STATUTORY
REGULATIONS OR CODES ARE MET AND THAT SPECIFIC SITE REQUIREMENTS ETC ARE SATISFIED.
Apart from Housing replacement, other maintenance
tasks and inspections can be carried out with the
valve 'in line', so long as complete isolation,
depressurising and purging have been completed.
4.1 SPARE PARTS

When ordering spare parts, to ensure correct
replacement to original specification, always
