The easy start valve allows relief of system pressure when starting a gasoline engine. The easy start valve is a low pressure bypass or relief valve, which directs water into bypass until a certain pressure is reached. Since water is directed to bypass in low pressure, the load on the pump, and consequently, the engine is less than the normal operating load and engine starting is eased. This valve can be especially useful in systems with larger gasoline engines, such as 8 hp or larger.
The valve consists of an inlet fitting, a valve ball and spring, a valve seat, and an outlet fitting equipped with a low pressure hose barb. The inlet fitting has a hole drilled through it with a substantially smaller diameter than the inlet line. SPECIFICATIONS:
Maximum Volume: 8.0 GPM
Maximum Pressure: 5000 PSI
Inlet Size: 3/8″ MPT
Hose Barb Size: 1/8″
Weight: .25 lb.
Protects the pump from damaging heat build up while it is in bypass mode. The thermal relief valve, sensing a rise in temperature opens and discharges a small amount of heated fluid. This allows cooler water to enter the system and cool the pump. When the gun is discharged the cooler water will cause the valve to close immediately.
FEATURES:
Most consistent temperature range on the market
Quickest response to rising temperature
Less stress on the pump
Shorter overall length
Most cost effective thermal protector on the market
Mounts easily in the pump manifold, inlet water supply or bypass loop plumbing.
SPECIFICATIONS:
Hose barb: 90 1/4″
Weight: 1.5 oz.
