Kunkle Valve 6010EDM01AAM0150 Valve

The Kunkle Valve 6010EDM01AAM0150 is a high-performance bronze safety relief valve specifically engineered for ASME Section I steam applications. Designed with a 3/4-inch MNPT inlet and a 1-inch FNPT side outlet, this industrial relief valve is factory-set at 150 PSI to provide reliable overpressure protection for steam boilers, generators, and pressure-reducing stations. Featuring an E-orifice design, it delivers a certified steam flow capacity of 1,651 lbs/hr, ensuring system safety in demanding mechanical environments.

Constructed with a heavy-duty bronze body and a stainless steel spring (ASTM A-313 Typ 631), this valve maintains pressure vessel safety and operational integrity up to 406°F. The 6010 series utilizes dual control rings for precise blowdown adjustment and a pivot between the disc and spring to compensate for side thrust, preventing premature wear. For contractors and technicians, the wide hex nut on the nozzle allows for efficient installation in tight piping configurations, while the plain lift lever facilitates manual testing as required by boiler safety codes.

• ASME Certified Performance: Fully compliant with ASME Section I and VIII (V and UV stamps) for verified steam and air/gas relief.
• Optimized Flow Control: Equipped with dual control rings to provide exact blowdown control and minimize simmer.
• Durable Metallurgy: High-quality bronze body and stainless steel trim resist corrosion in high-temperature steam service.
• Precision Alignment: Features a grooved piston-type disc and self-aligning pivot to reduce friction and ensure consistent reseating.

Common Questions

What is the maximum temperature rating for this Kunkle 6010 valve?
