Conbraco 19-KEDA-100 Valve

The Conbraco 19-KEDA-100 is an ASME Section I certified steam pressure relief valve designed for power boiler applications high-pressure steam service. This high-capacity safety valve features a 3/4" Male NPT inlet and a 1" Female NPT outlet, factory-set at 100 PSI. Built with a rugged brass trim and a durable Teflon seat, the 19-KEDA-100 ensures positive shut-off and high-temperature resistance, maintaining a discharge capacity of 1,152 pounds per hour. Its National Board certified design is engineered to prevent over-pressurization in critical steam systems, making it a reliable choice for contractors managing industrial or commercial boiler installations. The side-outlet configuration facilitates easy piping for discharge steam, while the corrosion-resistant internal components provide longevity in harsh mechanical environments. This ASME steam relief valve is essential for maintaining system integrity and compliance with rigorous safety codes in boiler rooms and thermal processing plants.

Key Benefits

• High Discharge Capacity: Rated for 1,152 lbs/hr to ensure rapid pressure relief in high-demand steam systems.
• ASME Section I Certified: Specifically engineered and tested for power boiler applications and pressure piping.
• Teflon (PTFE) Seating: Offers superior chemical resistance and provides a bubble-tight seal to prevent simmering and leakage.
• Heavy-Duty Brass Construction: The brass trim and body provide excellent heat dissipation and structural durability.
• Precise 100 PSI Set Point: Factory-calibrated for accurate pressure management and predictable system safety.

Common Questions

What is the difference between Section I and Section IV relief valves?
The Conbraco 19-KEDA-100 is an ASME Section I valve, meaning it is specifically rated for power boilers where the operating pressure exceeds 15 PSI. Section IV valves are typically reserved for low-pressure heating boilers.

Can this valve be field-adjusted to a different pressure?
No, these valves are factory-set and sealed. Forcing an adjustment in the field voids the ASME certification and can lead to dangerous system failures. Always select the model that matches your system’s specific 100 PSI setting requirements.

Is the Teflon seat suitable for high-temperature steam?
Yes, the Teflon seat in this series is designed to handle the thermal rigors of steam service while providing a more resilient seal than metal-to-metal seats, which helps reduce maintenance intervals caused by minor seat leakage.
