ME840-16-70 2" HIGH FLOW BY-PASS VALVE 40-70 PSI

These bypass valves are specifically designed to protect truck and plant pumps from damage due to excessive pressure while providing the industry’s best bypass flow rates across a full range of set pressures. They feature wide open flow channels with an orifice weep hole chamber to prevent the valve from slamming open / closed. The weep hole chamber also helps prevent valve seat chatter by allowing constant pressure communication between both the upstream and downstream side of the seat.
