The 1088 Vacu-Gard® Tank Blanketing Valve is specifically designed for small tank blanketing applications. This valve automatically opens and closes as needed to maintain a closely controlled blanket pressure, ensuring protection against tank overpressure or vacuum conditions. Its simple yet robust design enhances reliability and reduces maintenance costs. The valve set point is defined where the blanketing valve closes bubble tight, which maximizes the dead band between the blanketing valve and the relieving device, minimizing gas losses. The 1088 valve offers a wide range of settings, from vacuum to 14 psig, allowing for easy and precise selection.

Specifications

  • Valve Type: Tank blanketing valve
  • Size: DN15 (1/2″)
  • Material: Standard materials with added corrosion protection
  • Set Point Range: Vacuum to 14 psig
  • Design: Compact and lightweight with a pressure-balanced trim

Technical Data

  • Blanketing Pressure Control: Automatically adjusts to maintain blanket pressure within the set range
  • Valve Set Point: Bubble tight at set point, ensuring no waste of blanketing gases
  • Pressure Balance: Fluctuations in supply pressure do not affect the set point
  • Temperature Stability: Temperature changes have no significant effect on the set point
  • Maintenance: Allows full access to valve internals without removal from the tank; diaphragm case disassembly is only needed when replacing the diaphragm
  • Sealing: Uses standard O-rings for seat and seals

Advantages

  • Compact Design: Lightweight and compact, allowing for easy installation and maintenance.
  • Wide Range of Settings: Offers a broad range of set points from vacuum to 14 psig, simplifying selection.
  • Bubble Tight Sealing: Ensures no gas wastage at the set point.
  • Pressure Stability: Pressure-balanced trim maintains consistent set point regardless of supply pressure fluctuations.
  • Ease of Maintenance: Valve internals are easily accessible without removal from the tank, reducing downtime and maintenance costs.

Industries

  • Chemical Processing: Ideal for applications requiring precise tank blanketing in chemical processes.
  • Pharmaceuticals: Used to maintain sterile conditions in pharmaceutical storage tanks.
