WSPV Scald Protection Valve
The WSPV
is used to protect personnel from accidental scalding by over-heated water or other liquids. Installations such as eye-wash stations and
safety showers can become over-heated by piping exposed to solar radiation or a heat exchanger malfunction.
Features
- Corrosion resistant stainless steel body
- Long service life
- Narrow temperature band
- System pressures will not affect opening temperature
Operation
When water temperature rises above 95ºF, the thermal
actuator modulates the valve open. If the water exceeds
105ºF, the valve will go to full open position in order to
discharge the over-heated water. When the water temperature
returns to 95ºF, the thermal actuator modulates
the valve to close.
