This Rheem Relief Valve is a safety device designed to control and limit the temperature and pressure levels within a heating system. The valve operates by releasing excess pressure when the system surpasses its safe threshold, thereby preventing potential damage or failure. It is constructed from high-quality materials for durability and longevity. The valve features a 3/4 inch inlet and outlet size, with a factory set pressure relief at 150 PSI (Pounds per Square Inch) and temperature relief at 210 degrees Fahrenheit. It also complies with ANSI (American National Standards Institute) / ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers) standards for safety assurance.
