Re-Settable Emergency Block Valve
Manufactured by BI-TORQ Valve Automation, USA
Our Re-settable Emergency Block Valve (R-EBV) is designed for critical applications in refineries, natural gas production pipelines, chemical facilities, or any other process involving flammable liquids or gases. Our R-EBV will shut down an API 607 1/4-turn ball or butterfly valve in case of flames or high local heat, reducing chances that dangerous media will further feed a fire. The unit also can be shut down through a remote signal in advance of an approaching fire. In addition to those safety features, the R-EBV can be manually operated as part of a regular maintenance program, assuring proper function of this crucial safety device at all times.
