VAREC 4110A/3610/3660 SERIES VACUUM RELIEF VALVES

Spring-loaded valves that protect tanks and vessels from damage or deformation caused
by changes in process pressure and vacuum conditions

FEATURES

• Spring-loaded pallet provides relief settings

up to 50.8 psig (3.5 barg).
• Flexible installation through top mounted
(4110A), side mounted (3610) and flanged
intake and discharge connections (3660) for
‘in-line’ applications.
• 4110A and 3610 models’ pallets are statically
balanced, side and center-guided for stability,
proper alignment and non-binding, positive
3660 SERIES seating over the valve’s life.
• Soft seat pallet inserts available for a
tight seal.
• Metal-to-metal seating available for elevated
process temperatures.
4110A SERIES • Model 3660 valves suitable for either pressure
(top-mounted) or vacuum (side-mounted)
relief.
• Model 3660 for vacuum relief allows a
dehydrator to be installed to provide dry air at
the intake.
• Model 3660 for pressure relief can be
connected to a discharge header to collect
vapors for scrubbing, incineration, etc.,
controlling corrosive, flammable or toxic
GENERAL APPLICATION TECHNICAL DATA emissions.

These valves are also suitable for routine Materials: Aluminum, carbon steel,
inbreathing or backup relief and can be used stainless steel, iron
in petroleum refineries, marketing terminals, Sizes: 2" to 12" (50 to 300 mm)
petrochemical and chemical processes, as Connections: Flanged
well as pulp and paper, food and beverage and Relief settings: 1 to 50 psig (.07 to 3.5 barg)
waste water plants. Vacuum settings: 1 to 6 psig (.07 to 0.34 barg)
