PRESSURE RELIEF/SUSTAINING VALVE –
BV426

The BV426 Pressure Relief Sustaining Valve, from the Belven - Stallion range has a Stallion BV400 (Main Valve)
coupled with BV402 Pressure Relief / Pressure Sustaining Pilot. In addition to the pilots, the Assembly has
needle valves, inline strainers and optional Pressure gauges. The BV402 Pressure Sustaining pilot maintains
the upstream pressure above the preset on the pilot regardless of the Downstream flow and whenever the
system pressure exceeds the preset of pilot, the valve will immediately open to release excess pressure and
keep the protects the system against high pressure surges
