    If the blower is intended to be used in pressure mode then a pressure relief valve is required. NVE recommends the use of Kunkle pressure relief valves as they have been proven to work well and have sufficient flow capacity. The valves we supply are factory set to 10 PSI and are sealed.
  • Page 20: Secondary Shutoff/Moisture Trap

    Secondary Shutoff/Moisture Trap The secondary shutoff or Moisture Trap should also be appropriately sized for the air flow application. Contact NVE for assistance with selecting the shutoff. Bag House Bag houses are typically used in systems where dry material is being pumped. Spec- ification of a proper bag house depends on the frequency and type of dry material being pumped.
