The Victor 0600-0018 Relief Valve is a critical engineering control designed to maintain the integrity and safety of gas regulation systems. Calibrated to actuate at a pressure of 400 PSI (pounds per square inch), this device serves as the primary safeguard against over-pressurization events within downstream delivery lines. In industrial gas applications, regulator seat failure or creep can inadvertently allow high-pressure supply gas to enter the low-pressure delivery side; the 0600-0018 is engineered to vent this excess pressure to the atmosphere immediately, thereby protecting sensitive downstream equipment, hoses, and personnel from catastrophic failure.
Manufactured from high-grade brass, the valve body offers excellent mechanical strength and resistance to environmental corrosion, ensuring consistent performance over a long service life. The internal spring mechanism is precision-set at the factory to ensure repeatable relief characteristics, eliminating the variability often associated with generic or adjustable aftermarket alternatives. As a genuine Victor OEM component, this relief valve guarantees dimensional compatibility with specific Victor regulator bodies and manifold systems, ensuring a gas-tight seal and proper thread engagement. For maintenance professionals and safety officers, utilizing the correct pressure-rated relief device is a non-negotiable aspect of MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations) protocol for compressed gas equipment.
This unit is specifically designated for systems requiring a 400 PSI relief point, which is common in certain heavy-duty or high-delivery-pressure applications. Installation should always be performed by qualified personnel familiar with gas apparatus repair, ensuring that the valve is seated correctly and that the system is leak-tested prior to returning to service. The brass construction also provides spark resistance, a necessary property for components used in proximity to flammable gases or oxygen-enriched environments.
