AA-60 ALUMINUM BODIED PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE

AA-60 ALUMINUM BODIED PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE

AA-60 ALUMINUM BODIED PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE

Product catalog summary
Overview: The AA-60 Aluminum Bodied Pressure Relief Valve is designed for use in pipelines with operating pressures up to 120 PSI, where large volume discharge is required. It features a lightweight, corrosion-resistant aluminum body and is available in 3" and 4" sizes.
Specifications: The valve is available in three configurations: AA-60A (factory-set pressure discharge), AA-60B (field-set pressure discharge), and AA-60C (factory preset with aluminum spring housing). It meets Soil Conservation Service specifications and includes a larger orifice for enhanced performance.
Features: The valve includes a Teflon seal face and bushing to prevent sticking, a rubber composition seal backing to prevent blow-out, and high-strength aluminum and stainless steel components for durability. It operates automatically with specially manufactured springs for sensitivity and maximum discharge.
Performance: The valve's performance may vary by 2-3 PSI due to spring variations. It meets SCS specifications 430-EE and 430-DD from April 1982. Discharge curves for 3" and 4" sizes show varying GPM at different PSI levels, indicating the valve's capacity to handle different pressure conditions.
Parts List: Key components include the base, cover assembly, spring retainer, guide rod assembly, spring, and spring housing, all made from high-strength materials to ensure reliability and longevity.

AA-60 ALUMINUM BODIED PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE-1

AA-60 ALUMINUM BODIED PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE • ALUMINUM BODY FOR LIGHTER WEIGHT • CORROSION RESISTANT • SAME TIME PROVEN DESIGN AS OUR POPULAR MODEL AA-96 • AVAILABLE IN 3" AND 4" SIZES USES: The Waterman Model AA-60 may be used for pressure relief on any pipeline with operating pressures up to 120 PSI max. where a large volume discharge is needed. The AA-60 meets the requirements of the Soil Conservation Service specifications and has a larger orifice that is a feature not found on most other makes. FEATURES: The Model AA-60 is available in three configurations, each filling a specific customer need. The AA-60A has a pressure discharge setting that is factory set for convenience and accuracy. The model AA-60B is designed to be set in the field utilizing actual pipeline pressure. The model AA-60C is factory preset, and includes an aluminum spring housing which protects the top mounted spring from weather and also discourages tampering. Automatic operation is provided by specially manufactured springs that are engineered to provide a high degree of sensitivity and provide maximum discharge. Materials have been selected to provide long life, minimize maintenance and provide "fail-safe" performance. A Teflon seal face and bushing prevent sticking, even after long periods of exposure to sunlight and heat. The rubber composition seal backing is cloth inserted to prevent seal "blow-out" or creep. The threaded base is high strength cast aluminum. Spring retainer and cover are also high strength aluminum. Guide rod and all fasteners are stainless steel. Galvanized or plated hardware is never used. PARTS LIST No. Name Cover Assembly Spring Retainer Spring Housing
