Our team can provide you with the finest blow off silencer design there is or a model to suit almost any other need. With our help, you will have a much more pleasant experience while you are at work.
Something we often see is confusion about blow off and bypass valves. They may have similar names, but there are several differences between the two. What we are going to do is talk a little about both to help you understand them better.
Blow off valves
Traditionally, these devices vent 100% to the atmosphere. This is the source of the “pssssh” sound. You can find them in a huge array of systems in different facilities. For example, they are common on turbines and natural gas pipe lines. They work to rapidly reduce pressure to ensure a failure does not happen. Some operators also use them to keep operating conditions consistent.
The bypass valves
This valve design differs from the blow off one since it does not vent air to the atmosphere. Instead, it operates by redirecting part of the gas into an intake or reservoir. As a result, it can reduce the pressure. With this design, the pressure is considerably more consistent. It can also avoid the noise of venting.
