Aqua Environment 1584 1584 Series Separator Drain or Bleed Valve Hand Operated 7000 PSI 1/4" MNPT Anodized Aluminum Body

This bleed valve is designed to vent high pressure or condensate from charging lines, filters, separators and other volumes where pressure must be relieved to disconnect lines, tanks etc. It has an exclusive seal design that permits opening and closing thousands of times without loss of sealing ability. Light finger pressure is all that's required however over torquing should not damage the valve. It replaces 1004 drain valve. It's design and size is the same as the 1004 valve but includes a side locking screw that prevents unitentional removal or loss of the screw.

Features:

• End cap
• Hand operated bleed valve

Installation

Use 3 or 4 turns of teflon tape pipe thread sealant. Avoid over torquing the pipe threads. Torque that can easily be applied with a 6 or 8 inch wrench is enough. Excessive torque can cause eventual cracking and leakage. These valves are NOT provided oxygen clean and should NOT be used in oxygen service as provided.

Operation

These valves requires only a light finger torque to seal at pressures to 7000 PSI. Full flow is achieved by opening the bleed valve 1/2 to 3/4 turns. Avoid opening the valve more than this.

Maintenance and repair caution

No routine maintenance is required. The valve should only be disassembled and reassembled by a qualified valve repair person following the drawing. When replacing the teflon seat pry out the old seat with a pen knife. Drop the new seat in place. It will fit loosely until tightened the first time. When first tightening, hold the seat upward so it will not fall out of place.
