0600-0016 - Victor 300 PSI Brass Safety Relief Valve

Technical Overview of the Victor 0600-0016 Relief Valve

The Victor 0600-0016 is a precision-engineered relief valve designed to safeguard gas regulation equipment against over-pressurization events. Set to actuate at 300 PSI (pounds per square inch), this device serves as a critical boundary control in high-pressure gas delivery systems, including industrial regulators and manifold assemblies. The valve body is machined from high-grade brass, selected for its superior mechanical properties and resistance to corrosion in various gas service environments.

Functionally, the valve operates on a spring-loaded mechanism that remains seated during normal operation. Should the system pressure exceed the 300 PSI threshold due to regulator seat failure or thermal expansion, the valve opens to vent the excess gas, thereby preventing catastrophic failure of downstream components or hoses. Once the pressure returns to safe operating levels, the valve is designed to reseat automatically, maintaining system integrity. This component is an OEM specification part, ensuring exact fitment and adherence to the safety standards established by Victor for their gas apparatus.

Maintenance professionals and safety engineers rely on genuine Victor parts like the 0600-0016 to maintain the certification and safety rating of their welding and cutting setups. Substitution with non-rated or generic valves can compromise the pressure relief characteristics required for specific regulator models. This unit is suitable for use in compatible Victor heavy-duty regulators and distribution manifolds where a 300 PSI relief point is specified.
