RV series: 7 color-coded springs available for a wide range of set pressure, 50 to 6000 psig @ 70°F (3.4 to 414 bar @ 20°C)
RL series: 10 to 225 psig @ 70°F (0.68 to 15.5 bar @ 20°C)
RM series: 3 color-coded springs available for a wide range of set pressure, 50 to 1500 psig @ 70°F (3.4 to 103 bar @ 20°C)
◎ Maximum outlet pressure:
RV series: 1500 psig (103 bar)
RL series: 225 psig (15.5 bar)
RM series: 1500 psig (103 bar)
◎ Orifice size:
RV series: 0.14" (3.6 mm)
RL series: 0.19" (4.8 mm) and 0.25" (6.4 mm)
RM series: 0.25" (6.4 mm)
◎ Back pressure
Back pressure is the pressure of the outlet of valves. It increases the set pressure of proportional relief valves.
RV and RM series: Balanced stem design to eliminate the effect of system back pressure
RL series: Pre-set pressure = Desired pressure - 0.8 × Back pressure
◎ Working temperature: -10°F to 300°F (-23°C to 148°C)
◎ Variety of end connections
◎ Liquid or gas service
◎ Adjustable bonnet cap and adjustable set pressure
◎ Lead seal through lock wire holes to lock proportional relief valve so as to secure a set pressure effectively
◎ Variety of seal materials
◎ Label identifies the set pressure range
Applications
Relief valves are proportional relief valves that open gradually as the pressure increases. Consequently, they do not have a
capacity rating at a given pressure rise (accumulation), and they are not certified to ASME or any other codes.
! Some system applications require relief valves to meet specific safety codes. The system designer and user
must determine when such codes apply and whether these relief valves conform to them.
! FITOK proportional relief valves should never be used as ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code safety relief
devices.
! FITOK proportional relief valves are not “Safety Accessories” as defined in the Pressure Equipment Directive
2014/68/EU.
