Spence Announces New Figure 800 Safety Relief Valve

Spence Engineering Company, Inc., Walden, New York announces the introduction of the new Figure 800 Safety Relief Valve. The Figure 800 meets ASME Section VIII for liquid, steam, air & gas services. The valve features quick opening and short reclosing pressures while incorporating a fixed ring design that reduces maintenance costs and provides longer life.

The standard Figure 800 comes with all stainless steel internals for improved corrosion resistance. A soft seat option provides tighter shutoff for those applications when the operating pressure is close to the set pressure of the valve.

The Figure 800 is available in pressures to 900 PSIG and temperatures to 422°F. Additionally, the Figure 800 is suitable for Cryogenic Application down to -400°F.

The Figure 800 is available from stock within 24 hours from one of our certified valve assembly shops located throughout the country.

Spence Engineering Company, Inc. is an ISO 9001 certified manufacturer of pressure and temperature control valves, steam traps, pneumatic control valves and safety and relief valves. Spence Engineering is a division of Circor International, a NYSE company.
