Can propane lines freeze to an inside stove?
Yes it will work. But if you turn the valve open to fast there is a safety mechanism inside the valve and the propane will not come out. You will need to open the valve slowly for the tank to work.
what psi Does the air brake system safety relief valve open?
Yeah, that's not what it is.. the compressor is supposed to cut out between 115 and 130 psi.. at that point, the purge valve on the air dryer opens to discharge any oil and water accumulated.
What is the difference between a control valve and a gate valve in a stand pipe system?
a gate valve is a one way totally open or closed valve, a control valve is a variable valve.
Does a radiator in a water-to-steam boiler heating-system need to be all the way open or all the way closed or can it be in between?
Anywhere in between. The farther open valve is the warmer radiator will get during normal operation of heat system.
Should fusible link sprinklers be used in a deluge system?
No, sprinklers in a deluge system are "open"; no valve in the sprinkler, and an automatic valve turns on the water to all open sprinklers when a fire condition is detected.
How do you Adjust the valves on a 304 AMC?
I nee to know when when to adjut each valve when intake is open and when exhaust ect. I need to know when when to adjut each valve when intake is open and when exhaust ect. I need to know when when to adjut each valve when intake is open and when exhaust ect.
How is boiler spring loaded safety valve works?
when the pressure increases over the maximum allowable working pressure of the vessel, the valve will open to protect against overpressure.
Why would a propane tank vapor lock?
Because most modern tanks have a safety valve in them. If you open the valve too quickly, the valve will think that nothing is hoked to it and will shut off the output of the tank. Close the valve on the tank, dissconnect it from the regulator to let off the pressure and reset the check valve. Reconnect to the regulator and open the tank valve slowly..
Why is to safety valve mounted on boiler drum?
the safety valve is mounted on the top of drum because, if the water level in boiler decreases a certain value, the temperature gets increased in water drum because of lack of water. So, increase in temperature result in high pressure in steam drum, as the safety valve is designed to withstand a certain pressure, after a cetain pressure, the safety valve is removed by high pressure of steam. this is why the safety valve is mounted on top of boiler drum. +++ Shall we sort out that lot? That answer is wrong. Its only link with water-level is that the valve has to be above the water anyway. If the boiler runs dry the safety-valve will not protect it. The safety-valve is there to prevent the steam pressure rising to a potentially a dangerous level. It is set to open at the boiler's designed working pressure.
What psi is the safety valve set to open on trucks?
It is set to blow off air pressure exceeding 150 psi.
How does the air dryer cause the system to lose pressure?
Usually the purge valve fails and gets stuck open or something goes asunder and signals the purge valve to stay open.
What wohld happen if valves stoped working?
Completely depends on the system. Often valves are designed to fail in a certain way (open/closed/as is) to prevent larger system failures. Need specifics of valve and application...
