SLV5 Air Operated Bottom Valve

 

The SLV5-ARO pneumatic and sequential emergency valve incorporates the latest technical advancements to ensure high flow rates and the safe loading and discharge of road tankers.

The SLV-ARO has a specially designed poppet that provides a reduction in static electricity for fast and safe operation at high flow rates.

This valve is installed in the compartment floor and controls the flow of product from each compartment. It also incorporates a shear groove which is designed to break below the valve and retain the compartment contents in the event of accidental damage to the wet legs or API adaptors.

The 125mm diameter poppet has a concave design which operates as a deflector reducing splash, surge and static build up during loading and similarly during discharge. The unique design results in nil vortexing of the product meaning faster and safer loading and unloading.

Liquip can supply SLV5 series foot valves as single units or in "Kits". A Kit is a part that combined two or more parts e.g. a SLV5 foot valves supplied with mating Tank flange and pipe flange gaskets. Please see ordering information tab for further detail.
