Product catalog summary

Overview: The document describes the NuQuip® Automatic Air Bleed Valves, which are designed for use in high-pressure applications up to 40,000 psi (2,758 bar). These valves are used to remove air from testing or expansion assemblies, thereby speeding up the pressurization process and reducing cycle times.

Specifications: The valves are constructed from heat-treated stainless steel and are compatible with TestMaster® and ExpanTek® tools. They are suitable for use with water, oil, and other liquids. The valve configuration includes screw-on tool attachments with flow rate options of low, medium, and high, and port styles such as NPT, MS, HP, MP, and JIC.

Operating Conditions: The valves operate under a maximum pressure of 40,000 psi (2,758 bar) and a temperature range of 32º F to 120º F (0º C to 49º C).

Description: These valves automatically bleed entrapped air in testing or expansion assemblies before pressurization, which is crucial for safety during testing. The presence of less air in the system reduces the severity of potential failures.

Operation: The valve's closing can be regulated using an adjusting screw. Turning the screw clockwise increases the flow required to close the valve, while turning it counter-clockwise decreases the flow needed. This allows users to adjust the valve to ensure air bypasses and liquid closes the valve.

High-Pressure Accessories “UNPARALLELED PERFORMANCE AND SAFETY UNDER PRESSURE!” Automatic Air Bleed Valves  Pressures up to 40,000 psi (2,758 bar)  Media: water, oil, and other liquids  Heat-treated stainless steel construction  Compatible with TestMaster® and ExpanTek® Tools The NuQuip® Automatic Air Bleed Valves are designed to attach directly to Airmo TestMaster® Hydrostatic Test Tools or ExpanTek® Expansion Tools with working pressures up to 40,000 psi (2,758 bar). Special valve configurations available upon request. The NuQuip® Automatic Air Bleed Valve is a screw-on tool attachment that removes air in testing or expansion assemblies; and is used to speed up the pressurization process, thus reducing cycle times. The Air Bleed Valves automatically bleed entrapped air in the testing or expansion assemblies prior to pressurization. This is extremely important during testing when pressurizing a part to failure; as compressed air stores more energy than compressed liquid. The less air present in the system, the less dramatic a failure will be, should it occur. OPERATION An adjusting screw can be used to regulate the closing of the Automatic Air Bleed Valve. By turning the screw clockwise  the valve will require more flow to close. Turning the screw counter-clockwise  will reduce the amount of flow needed for the valve to close. This enables the user to find a point, at which the air will bypass and the liquid will close the valve.
