1/4" MNPT Generant Cryogenic Relief Valve - 10PSI, 22PSI, 35PSI, 50 PSI, 100PSI, 150PSI, 200PSI, 250PSI -196°C to 176°C
Generant cryogenic relief valve with a 1/4″ MNPT connection, listed for service from -196 °C to 176 °C. Eight pressure ratings are stocked – 10, 22, 35, 50, 100, 150, 200 and 250 PSI – each supplied as a separate variant. Relief valves on cryogenic vessels and transfer lines vent the pressure rise produced when trapped liquid boils off to gas, so the rating has to be matched to the equipment being protected rather than chosen for convenience.
