[RLV1007] RMC Pressure & Temperature Relief Valve 1400kpa

RMC Pressure & Temperature Relief Valve 1400kPa

The RMC Pressure & Temperature Relief Valve 1400kPa is a critical safety valve designed to ensure that the water temperature within a pressurised, unvented hot water heater cannot exceed 99°C in the event that the normal thermostatic controls fail.

This valve guards against over-temperature and over-pressure hazards wherever water is stored in unvented containers, a requirement under Australian and New Zealand Standard AS/NZS 3500-4. The body is constructed from cast gunmetal, with internal parts made from brass and polysulfone, and a silicone rubber compound seat disc, ensuring reliable, long-term operation.

It's recommended that the easing lever be actuated every six months to help prevent mineral deposit build-up that could impair the valve's operation. The system inlet pressure should be no higher than 80% of the valve's set pressure to ensure correct operation.

Manufactured by RMC (Reliance Worldwide Corporation), this valve is available in 15mm and 20mm configurations, and should always be replaced with a genuine RMC valve to maintain manufacturer warranty coverage.
