Safety valves have higher specifications

The Spirax Sarco SV615 range of high performance safety valves for overpressure protection in steam, gas and liquid applications has been upgraded to achieve even higher setting accuracy and greater reliability. Furthermore, SV615 valves are set and sealed to the customer's pressure specification, with same day dispatch on urgent orders. The upgrades include reduced friction of the valve movement, flatter seats and less spring relaxation, resulting in more accurate setting, extremely predictable opening and crisper closing.

To ensure reliability and continuing good performance, valves are randomly chosen and independently tested on a fully instrumented test rig.

The SV615 range meets European Pressure Directive requirements and the integrity of shutoff complies with ANSI/API STD 527-1992.

Unique serial numbers and traceable set pressure certificates are issued with every valve.

Spirax Sarco SV615 safety valves have a high discharge capacity and can be used to protect steam boilers, pipeline and pressure vessels, compressors and receivers and most general industrial service applications.
