Kunkle Valve 6010JHE01AAM0150 Valve

The Kunkle Valve 6010JHE01AAM0150 is a high-capacity bronze safety relief valve designed specifically for heavy-duty steam service, offering a fixed set pressure of 150 PSI. Built to meet the rigorous demands of institutional and industrial systems, this model features a 2" MNPT inlet and a 2.5" FNPT side outlet, facilitating streamlined discharge piping. With a certified flow capacity of 10,808 PPH, it is an essential component for ASME Section I and Section VIII compliance in steam boiler and pressure vessel applications. The 6010JHE01AAM0150 (equivalent to the 6010JHE01-AM0150) utilizes an EPR O-ring seat to achieve superior leak-free performance and improved seating integrity across multiple cycles. Its robust bronze body, stainless steel spring, and National Board certification ensure reliable overpressure protection for steam generators and pressure reducing stations, even in high-temperature environments reaching up to 406°F.

Key Benefits:

• ASME Code Compliance: National Board certified for ASME Section I (Power Boilers) and Section VIII (Unfired Pressure Vessels) to ensure safety and regulatory adherence.
• Leak-Free Sealing: Equipped with an EPR O-ring and seats lapped to optical flatness for exceptional tight shutoff and reduced maintenance costs.
• High Relieving Capacity: Delivers a flow rate of 10,808 PPH at 150 PSI, suitable for managing significant steam loads.
• Heavy-Duty Construction: Features a bronze body and stainless steel spring for long-term durability in corrosive steam environments.
• Simplified Installation: A wide hex nozzle provides ample clearance for wrenching, speeding up the installation process for contractors.

Common Questions:

What is the difference between the 6010JHE01AAM0150 and the 6010JHE01-AM0150?
Technically, these model numbers represent the exact same valve. The variation is simply a formatting difference in manufacturer databases; both provide the same 150 PSI steam relief specifications.

Can this safety valve be installed horizontally?
No. For proper operation, drainage, and to meet ASME code requirements, safety valves must be installed in a vertical upright position. Horizontal installation can lead to seat leakage and internal fouling.

What media is this specific 6010 model rated for?
While the 6010 series can handle air and non-hazardous gas, this specific configuration (JHE orifice) is optimized and certified for saturated steam service with an EPR O-ring suited for temperatures up to 406°F.
