The HR Blowers UK Ltd’s range of blower relief valves are designed to protect the blower from system over pressure, venting the excess pressure to atmosphere to protect the blower. Over pressure in the system can cause the blower to overheat reducing the life of the components and in severe cases, complete failure. The valve connections can be manufactured to suit any Customer’s requirements.

Our new valve range has been redesigned to be compact and uses fewer components for improved reliability and cost efficiency. Blower protection valves are available with factory pre-set relief pressures and can also be set to your specific requirement. As our valves are manufactured here in the UK they are available from stock. The valves are manufactured from durable materials to ensure long life in the harshest conditions:
Materials
- Aluminium tube casing
- Brass valve bell
- Stainless steel spindle
- Zinc plated mild steel spring
