Vacuum pressure vent valves allow evacuation of the overpressure or vacuum produced in atmospheric tanks during filling and emptying, or the pressure variations generated by changes in temperature, atmospheric pressure or by the variation in temperature of the fluid or the tank (failure in heating, tracing, heat exchangers). We select and design the vents to comply with the different ISO 28300, API 2000, APQ regulations.
Our vent valves are designed to meet the main European standards set out in the Atex directive and the and American standard UL, FM (Factory Mutual):
EN1127-1: Explosive atmospheres - Explosion prevention and methodology
ISO 80079-36 and 80079-37: Non-electrical equipment for explosive atmospheres
