Model 5100

Description:

The Model 5100 end-of-line conservation breather vent is intended for use on atmospheric and low-pressure storage tanks where pressure and vacuum relief is required.

Features

• Modular Design: The Pilot Operated Model 5100 end-of-line conservation breather vent is part of the Valve Concepts, Inc. modular vent product line. The Model 5100 can easily be field converted to a vacuum only vent, a pressure/vacuum vent with pipe away and can either be direct acting or pilot operated.
• Maintains Accurate Settings: The Pilot Operated Model 5100 provides bubble tight (no leakage) up to 95% of set pressure or 0.5" WC, whichever is greater and less than 1 SCFH at 90% of setting on the vacuum side of the vent. A certified test certificate is included with each vent verifying the accuracy of both the pressure and vacuum setting and leakage.
• Condensate Drainage: Self-draining housing body and drip rings keep condensate away from seating surfaces, preventing freezing, binding and clogging.
• Air-Cushioned Seating: Air-cushion seating provides tight sealing to reduce evaporation losses. The pallets have outer guiding and center stabilizing stem to provide self alignment and tight seating.

Technique

The Model 5100 has a pilot operated pressure side which permits tank operating pressures closer to the maximum allowable operating pressure. This provides a more positive control over vapor generation inherent in fluids with higher vapor pressures. The vacuum side of the vent is weight loaded and allows intake of air when necessary to remain within the vacuum design rating of the tank.
