Description

The DVU Series models are pneumatically controlled dump valves. 

The valves open and close automatically by pneumatic control from a

Murphy L1200NDVOR or similar level controller and dump valve opera-

tor. Diaphragm actuated, the DVU series dump valves operate at 30–70 psi

(207–483 kPa) [2.07–4.83 bar] and up to 2000 psi (13.8 MPa) [138 bar]

vessel pressure (depending on the model).

A key benefit of this design is a hex union that provides the ability 

to replace the seat without removing the valve from piping.
