Henry Technologies 5245-1-185 Valve
The Henry Technologies 5245-1-185 Valve is a heavy-duty refrigeration pressure relief valve designed for critical over-pressure protection in large-scale commercial and industrial systems. Featuring a 1" NPT inlet and a 1-1/4" NPT outlet, this ASME UV certified component is factory-set to a 185 PSI relief pressure, ensuring precise discharge when system pressures exceed safe limits. Engineered with a brass body and compatible with HFC and HCFC refrigerants, it utilizes a sophisticated "Center Loading Pivot" design to ensure the piston reseats squarely, minimizing post-discharge leakage. This HVACR safety relief valve is essential for protecting liquid receivers and heat exchangers from thermal expansion or compressor malfunctions. As a National Board (NB) certified device, it meets strict code requirements for high-performance pressure regulation, providing technicians with a reliable, tamper-proof solution for maintaining system integrity in demanding environments.
Key Benefits
- Precision Safety: Factory-sealed and calibrated to 185 PSI with a +/- 3% tolerance for dependable over-pressure protection.
- High Flow Capacity: Large 1" x 1-1/4" porting ensures rapid vapor discharge to prevent vessel failure during emergency events.
- Refrigerant Compatibility: Optimized for use with common industrial refrigerants including R22, R134a, R404A, and R410A.
- Durable Construction: Robust brass body and non-stick internals provide long-term resistance to corrosion and scaling.
- Code Compliance: Built and stamped in accordance with ASME Section VIII, Division 1 requirements for commercial installations.
Common Questions
What is the proper mounting orientation for this relief valve?
For optimal performance, the valve should be mounted vertically to prevent oil or liquid refrigerant from pooling at the inlet, which can interfere with the set pressure accuracy.
Can this valve be used for liquid relief applications?
No, this model is specifically engineered for vapor discharge. It is "back-pressure dependent" and must be piped to discharge to the atmosphere to ensure it meets its rated capacity.
When should a Henry series relief valve be replaced?
Industry standards recommend replacement at least every five years, or immediately following any discharge event, as the seating integrity and set pressure can no longer be verified after the seal has broken.
