York 022-08870-000 Relief Valve
The York 022-08870-000 Relief Valve is a precision-engineered OEM replacement part designed for high-pressure air applications within commercial and industrial cooling systems. This 3/8 inch NPT relief valve is factory-calibrated to a 330 PSI pressure setting, providing a critical safety boundary by discharging excess pressure to protect the structural integrity of your compressor or receiver tank. Constructed from high-durability brass, the 022-08870-000 ensures corrosion resistance and a leak-proof seal in demanding HVACR environments. This York pressure relief valve utilizes a 3/8" NPT inlet and is compatible with air systems requiring a high-threshold atmospheric discharge. For veteran contractors, the 022-08870-000 represents a standard-spec component for maintaining ASME-certified system safety and ensuring peak pneumatic performance. Whether you are performing routine chiller maintenance or responding to overpressurization events, utilizing genuine York HVAC parts ensures exact thread match and reliable set-point accuracy without the risk of seat leakage common in aftermarket alternatives.
Key Benefits for Technicians:- Internal Calibration: Factory-set at 330 PSI for reliable overpressure protection without the need for field adjustment.
- Rugged Brass Construction: Heavy-duty metallic body resists mechanical stress and environmental oxidation in mechanical rooms.
- Precise Threads: Features 3/8 inch NPT connections for a clean, secure fit into standard York manifold ports and receiver shells.
- Compact Footprint: Engineered for tight clearances (approx. 2" x 2") in crowded compressor compartments.
- System Reliability: Essential for preventing catastrophic failure of pressure vessels by maintaining established 330 PSI relief parameters.
Is the 022-08870-000 suitable for liquid refrigerant applications?
This specific model is primarily designed for air relief applications. While York manufactures valves for various media, technicians should verify the specific discharge capacity and compatibility with refrigerants (like R-134a or R-410A) based on the ASME UV stamp on the valve body.
What is the connection pattern for this valve?
The valve typically utilizes a 3/8 inch NPT male inlet. Always inspect the manifold or pipe threads for debris before installation to ensure a gas-tight seal at the high 330 PSI rating.
Can this relief valve be field-repaired if it begins to leak?
Negative. Per standard safety protocols, if a high-pressure relief valve fails to reseat or begins to simmer below its 330 PSI setpoint, it must be replaced with a new original equipment unit to maintain system certification.
