N/A
Hose break valves, type RBE must only be used to safeguard users in the event of hose breaks. They must not be used as switching valves for repeated closing actions. |
N/A
In order for a hose break valve to work properly there must be a difference between the normal operating flow rate (from pump) and the emergency flow rate created by a hose or line break. The emergency flow rate must be significantly higher than the normal operating flow. Why? The hose break valve is designed to only be closed in an emergency situation. These valves should not be cycled (opened and closed) with the system. Cycling the valve and/or excessive vibrations will lead to premature failure of the valve components. |
N/A
This closing flow rate is adjustable. The valve opens automatically by pressurizing connection1. |
