B&G diaphragm operated cast iron and diaphragm-assist operated bronze ASME Safety Relief Valves are designed to protect fired and unfired hot water pressure vessels against over-pressure conditions. These valves feature a unique failsafe disc with sufficient area to permit the valves to maintain their safety relief function in the event of a diaphragm rupture. These valves are designed, manufactured, tested and labeled in accordance with the requirements of Section IV of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel code. They are offered in a wide range of capacities to permit a close match with the boiler output rating.

- Protect fired and unfired hot water vessels against hazardous operating pressures
- Engineered in accordance with section IV of the ASME boiler and pressure code for heating boilers with capacities certified by the National Board of Boiler and Pressure Vessel Inspectors
- Offer the highest BTUH ratings available on the market today for valves in their class (790,000 to 5,999,000 BTUH)
- EPDM diaphragm operated (cast iron models) and diaphragm assisted (bronze models) have an effective area approximately 5 times greater than conventional "pop-type" relief valves to help overcome the effects of fouling
- Low differential between opening and closing pressures helps to prevent conditions under which system water might flash to steam and cause hammering
