The 1078 Vacu-Gard Tank Blanketing Valve is a pilot-operated valve designed to minimize blanketing gas losses in low-pressure storage tanks. It automatically opens and closes to maintain a precisely controlled blanket pressure. Its simple design enhances reliability and reduces maintenance costs. The valve closes bubble tight at its set point, providing a large dead band between the blanketing valve set point and the relieving device set point, thus reducing losses. With settings ranging from vacuum to 14 psig, the 1078 valve is versatile and easy to select. Its top-entry design is compact and lightweight, allowing full access to valve internals without removing it from the tank.

  • 1″ (DN25) Body
  • 2″ (DN50) Body

 

Pressure Range: Vacuum to 14 psig

 

Design: Top-entry, compact, and lightweight

 

Materials: Standard O-rings for seat and seals

Technical Data

  • Set Point Definition: Valve closes bubble tight
  • Stability: Pressure-balanced pilot ensures fluctuations in supply pressure do not affect the set point
  • Maintenance: Diaphragm case disassembly required only for diaphragm replacement; valve set point can be verified 100% on the tank without removal and without flowing supply gas into the tank
  • Temperature Effect: Temperature changes have no appreciable effect on set point
  • Shutoff: Bubble tight at set point to prevent waste of blanketing gases

Advantages

  • Reliable Operation: Simple design increases reliability and lowers maintenance costs
  • Wide Setting Range: Versatile with settings from vacuum to 14 psig
  • Easy Access: Top-entry design allows complete access to internals without removing the valve from the tank
  • Bubble Tight Shutoff: Prevents waste of blanketing gases and ensures efficient operation
  • Maintenance: Uses standard O-rings, facilitating easy maintenance

Industries

Storage Tanks: Ideal for low-pressure storage tanks where blanketing gas losses need to be minimized

Applications

Blanketing Applications: Suitable for applications requiring precise control of blanket pressure to reduce gas losses and maintain tank integrity
