Installation Tips
1. The effectiveness of Series 34 Air Release Valve is dependent upon it being located at appropriate high points in a pipeline and
at uniform intervals of approximately 2500 feet on horizontal pipelines.
2. There are four variables that can cause an air pocket to form slightly downstream of the true high point in a piping system:
1. Severity of the slope adjacent to the high point or change of gradient
2. Velocity of the liquid
3. Texture of the inside surface of the pipe being used
4. Viscosity of the fluid
It is recommended where an air pocket can form slightly downstream of the high point, to install additional Series 34 Air Release
Valve at this point.
3. Cla-Val has available, upon request, a Slide Rule Air Valve Calculator. It will greatly reduce the amount of time to size
valves for pipeline service.

Pressure Relief Valve
• UL Listed
• Factory Mutual Approved
• Direct Acting - Precise Pressure Control
• Positive Dependable Opening
• Drip Tight Closure
• No Packing Glands or Stuffing Boxes
• Sensitive to Small Pressure Variations
The Cla-Val Model 55L (UL Listed, FM approved) Pressure Relief
Valve is a direct-acting, spring loaded, diaphragm type relief valve. The
valve may be installed in any position and will open and close within
very close pressure limits.
The Model 55L is normally held closed by the force of the compression
spring above the diaphragm. When the controlling pressure applied
under the diaphragm exceeds the spring setting, the disc is lifted off its
seat, permitting flow through the control. When control pressure drops
below the spring setting, the spring forces the control back to its
normally closed position. The controlling pressure is applied to the
chamber beneath the diaphragm through an external tube on the 55L.
Typical Application
Fire Protection System Service
Using the Model 55L in a fire protection system or other closed type system, prevents pressure build-up whenever line pressure
exceeds the setting of the spring. The valve will relieve excess pressure to atmosphere preventing damage to the distribution network.

Installation Tips
1. The effectiveness of Series 34 Air Release Valve is dependent upon it being located at appropriate high points in a pipeline and
at uniform intervals of approximately 2500 feet on horizontal pipelines.
2. There are four variables that can cause an air pocket to form slightly downstream of the true high point in a piping system:
1. Severity of the slope adjacent to the high point or change of gradient
2. Velocity of the liquid
3. Texture of the inside surface of the pipe being used
4. Viscosity of the fluid
It is recommended where an air pocket can form slightly downstream of the high point, to install additional Series 34 Air Release
Valve at this point.
3. Cla-Val has available, upon request, a Slide Rule Air Valve Calculator. It will greatly reduce the amount of time to size
valves for pipeline service.
