Kunkle Valve 6010JHM01-AM0200 Valve
The Kunkle Valve 6010JHM01-AM0200 is a high-capacity ASME Section I steam pressure relief valve designed for power boiler applications and high-pressure steam systems. Featuring a 2-inch Male NPT inlet and a 2.5-inch Female NPT side outlet, this bronze-bodied safety valve is factory set at 200 PSI with a massive flow rating of 14,097 lbs/hr. Engineered with a full nozzle design and bronze/brass trim, it utilizes a metal-to-metal seat lapped to optical flatness to ensure superior seal integrity under continuous thermal cycling. The integrated plain lever allows for manual periodic testing required by jurisdictional inspectors. Built for the rigors of the mechanical room, the Kunkle 6010 series features dual control rings for precise blowdown adjustment and a pivot point between the disc and spring to compensate for side thrust, preventing premature wear and simmering. This valve is the standard for contractors maintaining National Board certified steam generators, autoclaves, and large-scale pressure reducing stations.
Key Benefits for Contractors- Maximum Discharge Capacity: Certified to handle 14,097 PPH, making it ideal for large-scale industrial steam boilers.
- Precise Blowdown Control: Dual control rings allow technicians to fine-tune opening and closing pressures, minimizing steam loss.
- Heavy-Duty Construction: The rugged bronze casting and stainless steel spring are designed for long-term reliability in high-vibration environments.
- Code Compliance: Fully compliant with ASME Section I (V) and Section VIII (UV) standards for unfired pressure vessels.
- Ease of Installation: Features a wide hex on the valve nozzle for secure wrenching and clearance in tight header configurations.
What is the maximum temperature rating for this model?
The 6010 series with bronze/brass trim is typically rated for saturated steam temperatures up to 406°F.
Can this valve be used for air or gas service?
While optimized for steam under ASME Section I, the 6010 model is also dual-certified for air and non-hazardous gas service under ASME Section VIII.
Is the set pressure adjustable in the field?
The valve is factory-sealed at 200 PSI. Field adjustments should only be performed by an authorized VR-stamp facility to maintain its ASME certification.
