NH3 Hydrostatic Relief Valves

Designed to protect systems from dangerous trapped liquid ammonia, hydrostatic relief valves ensure that your system remains safe and compliant by regulating pressure build-up. These specialised components automatically relieve excess pressure, help prevent damage to equipment, minimise leaks and system failures, and mitigate accidents and injuries.

NH₃ hydrostatic relief valves are an essential component of agricultural and industrial anhydrous ammonia systems, where high safety standards and compliance are critical. Take a look at our range below.

Frequently Asked Question

An NH₃ hydrostatic ammonia relief valve is a safety component designed to safely relieve liquid pressure in anhydrous ammonia systems when liquid may be trapped between closed valves. As trapped liquid ammonia expands due to temperature changes, pressure can rise rapidly. The hydrostatic relief valve opens automatically to release this excess pressure, ensuring safe operation and storage of anhydrous ammonia.

Not entirely. A safety relief valve protects against overall system overpressure, and a hydrostatic valve is used for localized pressure protection. Our hydrostatic relief valves are manufactured from high-strength materials to withstand harsh ammonia service and are commonly used in demanding agricultural or industrial applications where safe ammonia handling is vital.

Whether a hydrostatic relief valve is required depends on your system layout and applicable regulations; however, installing one would ensure safety and compliance where trapped liquid conditions exist.

Hydrostatic relief valves used in anhydrous ammonia systems are typically made from high-strength, ammonia-compatible materials such as stainless steel or specially treated alloys to ensure long-term reliability and safe operation in harsh agricultural and industrial environments.

Yes. Hydrostatic valves are commonly used on nurse tank units where liquid ammonia may become trapped in piping, hose assemblies, or between shutoff valves. Installing a hydrostatic valve helps prevents the tank from a dangerous pressure build-up of ammonia.
