Excess Flow Valves

EV12
Title:
Excess Flow Valves
EV12/EV13/EV14 Series

Used in pipeline system to stop uncontrolled release of system media in the event of a downstream gas line rupture or disconnection,
thereby saving the media and guaranteeing the system safety.

Features

• Maximum operating pressure: 6000 psi (414 bar)
• Operating temperature: 400°F (204°C)
• End Connections: GENLOK and NPT
• Connection size: 1/8” to 1/2’’
• The flow through the bleed vent is less than 1% of the flow rate in the trip range

Operating Principles

The spring-loaded poppet remains in the open position during system operation. If an excess flow occurs downstream, i.e. a pressure drop, the poppet rapidly moves to the cutoff position to block all uncontrolled flow. When the pressure is balanced once again, the poppet will automatically revert to the original (open) position.
