Excess Flow Valves
Model 6290 Series

Description
The Model 6290 Series Excess Flow Valve is a non-attitude-sensitive excess flow shut-off valve designed to operate with a wide range of inlet pressures. The capability of operating from 10 to 3000 psi allows it to be used either between a high pressure source and a pressure regulator, or in the low pressure delivery line to a process. In both applications, this control valve will automatically shut off the delivery of gas if the flow exceeds the preset limit.

Operation
The shutoff mechanism of the Model 6290 Series Excess Flow Valve is incorporated within a 1/4 inch SS high purity valve. The actuating knob has been designed to manually operate the valve and clearly indicate the relative operating condition . . . either "Open (Reset)" or "Auto (Shut off)".
