Installation Notes

  1. Shut down and relieve system pressure; lock the trigger and isolate power/air.
  2. Open the dump/bleed point to confirm zero pressure before disassembly.
  3. Remove the valve assembly; clean the cavity and inspect threads and seat bore.
  4. Install new seat, ball, o-rings, gasket, and retaining ring in the correct order.
  5. Apply medium-strength thread sealant, reassemble, then test for leaks at operating pressure.

Tip: Replace clogged strainers and verify filter mesh after service to stabilize pressure.

When to Rebuild / Replace

  • Valve will not fully relieve pressure or drips during shutdown.
  • Seat or ball shows pitting, flat spots, or visible scoring.
  • O-rings appear cut, flattened, or chemically swollen.
  • Frequent pressure spikes or irregular sampling flow at the filter housing.
