Pressure Relief Valve ( PRV )
Pressure Relief Valve Leafield A6
Description
The A6 Pressure Relief Valve has become a firm favourite with many manufacturers of leisure liferafts, RIBs and river rafts around the world. It is ideal for any use where compact and reliable valves are critical, for example, on commercial & military inflatable boats. The opening and closing pressures are accurately pre-set and repeatable.
A filter cap is available for use in environments where contamination is possible e.g. river rafts. This prevents contamination without affecting the pressure relief function.
A range of pressure settings are available (see selection chart). The valves are marked with the pressure setting numerically and with the pressure selection colour.
The valve is available in grey, black or white. We can provide a black or red plug where a secondary seal is required, for example in liferaft applications. Please note that when the plug is in place, the valve does NOT function as a pressure relief valve.
It is also available as a non-return valve only with a nominal opening pressure of 0.29psi (0.02bar).
