Super User 6GM Over Range Protection Valve Over Range Protection Valve for Pressure Gauges The Budenberg model 6GM over range protection valve has been primarily designed to protect pressure gauges (or other instruments) against over pressure conditions, either designed or accidental due to failure of other systems. The operation of the unit is based upon a piston assembly that can open or close dependant upon the applied pressure at the inlet. The unit should be fitted directly to the instrument to be protected. An internal spring holds the valve open under normal conditions. When the inlet pressure exceeds the setting pressure of the valve then the spring is compressed and closes the valve. Settings are achieved by selection of the appropriate spring to operate in the correct range and adjustment of the spring adjuster until the desired operational setting is achieved. Units can be used on any clean, non viscous fluids or gases that are compatible with the chosen materials of construction. contact us for pricing and availability of the Budenberg 6GM Protection Valve The Budenberg 6M Ball Valves are suitable for the following applications / industries Oil & Gas Pressure Gauge Petrochemical Pressure Gauge Power Generation Pressure Gauge Water & Waste Water Pressure Gauge Chemical Pressure Gauge The Budenberg 6GM Specifications Setting Pressure Ranges Units can be set at a range of pressures from 2 to 275 bar (30 to 4000 psi). Setting can be user adjusted within the range the spring. NB Factory settings are done on static pressure and as such the unit may require some slight user adjustment to ensure correct operation when under the dynamic application conditions.
