Chek-Lok® Excess Flow Valves are designed to provide a convenient means of withdrawing liquid from stationary containers prior to moving the container. The Chek-Lok® permits one transfer shut-off valve with an adapter to be used interchangeably on a number of tanks.

The 7590U and 7591U Chek-Loks® are also designed for use on permanent installations provided the excess flow valve is sized properly for the system and piping.

Note

Note for Closing Flow

N/A

Based on horizontal installation of excess flow valve. Flows are slightly more when valves are installed with outlet up; slightly less when installed with outlet down.

Note

N/A

Multiply flow rate by 0.94 to determine liquid butane flow.
In some cases, it may be necessary to use an in-line excess flow valve to protect the downstream piping. This valve is not recommended for use as a liquid source for pumps.
