SVL606
Stainless Steel
Safety Valve

Cert. No. LRQ 0963008

ISO 9001

Description

The SVL606 is a stainless steel, full lift TV approved anged safety

valve suitable for use with steam, gas and liquids.
Available types
Two main variations of the valve are available:
SVL606-B with a sealed cap for liquid service.
SVL606-C with a packed easing lever for steam (or other services
where a lever is specied).
Note: Both designs have closed bonnets.
Applications
The SVL606 is suitable for the overpressure protection of steam
boilers, pipelines, pressure vessels and most general process
industry applications, particularly where a valve of all stainless steel
construction is required to minimise contamination of the process
media or where hygienic considerations and aesthetic qualities are
prerequisites. This valve is also suitable for cryogenic service.
Standards and approvals
Approved by the TV to AD Merkblatt A2, TRD 421.
The requirements of the European Pressure Equipment
Directive, 97/23/EC have been satised and the valve belongs to
Category 4, having been designed for use with uids in Group 1
and 2 (gases and liquids). Always consult Spirax Sarco for uid
compatibility.
