Conrader DBD2-1212 blowdown valve is used in rotary screw compressor applications. It is normally a closed valve that requires a pressure signal to open.
Features:
- This discharge valve monitors and controls the fluid flow and responds to situations that require a change in the volume or speed of that flow.
- It features aluminium construction with a stainless steel spring mechanism that exerts a force on the valve to close it, preventing fluid to bounce back.
- It can withstand a maximum temperature and pressure of 400 degrees F and 250 psi, respectively.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. What should be the mounting orientation to install a valve?
A. A valve should be installed in a vertical and upright position to maintain performance and increase service life.
Q. What is the function of a drain hole in a valve?
A. The drain hole is intended to prevent any condensate from accumulating in the valve body that might corrode internal parts and prevent the valve from opening. The drain hole is piped away to safely dispose of any discharge.
