Designed to facilitate loading operations by providing equalization of pressures in the supply and storage containers. The supplementary excess flow valve closes when the flow from the container being filled exceeds a predetermined rate.

Rego® Vapor Equalizing Valves consist of an upper back check valve and lower excess flow valve. In the closed position, the attachment of a vapor hose coupling with its projecting nozzle, opens the back check valve to permit flow in either direction. The lower excess flow valve is designed to close automatically when flow out of the container being filled exceeds the rated capacity. The valve closes automatically when the coupling is removed. Like the double-check filler valves, the vapor equalizing valves utilize a two-piece body construction. The lower excess flow valve will permit some leakage when the upper back check valve is removed for emergency repairs or replacement. Rego® Vapor Equalizing Valves are designed for use in both ASME and DOT containers. |
