Pop Off Valves
Protect your equipment from excessive pressure with pop-off valves. These devices are a secondary safety measure to pressure relief valves, your primary source of protection. If the pressure relief valve fails or pressure buildup exceeds the amount released a catastrophic failure can occur. When this happens, if installed in the system, a pop-off valve will activate and prevent costly damage to your equipment and anyone working near it. Whether you need a pressure washer pop-off valve or one for your car wash equipment, we have you covered. We stock a variety of models designed to match the specifications of your equipment. If we don’t have a model that is compatible with your equipment, we can find one for you. Browse below or give us a call today!
What is a Pop-Off Valve
A high-pressure pop-off valve is a safety device designed to protect equipment from excessive pressure buildup. They are secondary safety measures, acting as a backup to primary pressure relief valves. Pop-off valves can be employed in car wash equipment, pressure washers, industrial, oil, and gas industries, including many other applications.
How Do They Work?
When the pressure in your system surpasses a predetermined limit, the pop-off valve rapidly opens, allowing excess fluid or gas to escape preventing catastrophic failure.
Unlike pressure relief valves, which gradually open to release pressure, pop-off valves offer a swift and immediate response to pressure spikes.
Why Are Pop-Off Valves Important?
Pop-off valves prevent damage to expensive equipment and systems and protect personnel from injury and potentially death. Excessive pressure spikes can cause your equipment to explode, launching shrapnel, steam, corrosive chemicals, and other hazards at your employees and anyone nearby.
Common Applications:
- Car Washes
- Pressure Washers
- Hydraulic systems
- Pneumatic systems
- Air compressors
- Industrial machinery
- Oil and gas industry
Purchase Considerations:
- Does the pop-off valve’s pressure rating match the maximum pressure rating of your equipment?
- Can it handle the flow rate of the pump?
- Will the material used to make the pop-off relief valve endure the chemicals being pumped and the environment the valve is employed?
- Are the connections on your valve compatible with the equipment and system it is being installed?
