1.0 Vacuum Relief (Safety) Valves (VRV)
1.1 Vacuum Relief Valves are used to protect the tank from negative pressures in such
events as steam cleaning and product cooling. McKenzie Valve supplies threaded and
flanged designs generally used for general purpose tank cars. The valve is available with
settings between ¾ psig vacuum and 4 psig vacuum (1.5 inHg – 8.1 inHg).
1.2 The valves mount on either a 21/2” NPT, 2” ANSI 150# Flange, or a Modified ANSI 1-1/2”
ANSI 150# Flange. The valves are constructed of stainless steel with stainless trim.
1.3 The valves use a clover leaf shaped O-Ring, known as a quad seal or X-Seal.
1.4 The valves are available with several standard elastomeric material options. Alternate O-
Ring materials are also available as a special order.

Vacuum Relief Valve
2.0 General Warnings and Disclosures:
2.1 The following guidelines describe McKenzie Valve and Machining LLC’s standard
disassembly and reassembly instructions. These are not meant to conflict, override,
supersede or be used in place of a company’s safety, production, and engineering
standards or government rules and regulations. All DOT, AAR, CTC, national, federal,
local, and other regulations that apply must be followed.
2.2 Only trained, qualified personnel should perform any procedures described within this
brochure.
2.3 Read and understand the entire procedure before attempting any service or inspection.
2.4 These valves are used in numerous services and complete information about the
commodity should be obtained, verified, and reviewed before any inspection or
maintenance is performed.
2.5 To avoid exposure to toxic or hazardous conditions and materials, ensure that the direct
area and all components are free of hazardous materials before performing any
maintenance.
During maintenance, use appropriate personal protection equipment based on the

service in which the valve was used. Residual materials may still be in the valve, so
appropriate precautions need to be taken.
During installation, take care to ensure the valve is in purchased condition; clean, free of
debris, and free of scratches that can lead to leakage. Use appropriate gaskets,
fasteners, torque, tools, and methods to install the valve.
2.6 To avoid physical harm, use appropriate equipment to handle the valves. The design of
Vacuum Relief Valves (VRV) utilizes a compressed spring. These springs store potential
energy that could be harmful if uncontrollably released.
When transporting, removing, disassembling, assembling, or installing the valves, do not

place any part of your body directly in front of the spring.
Handle the valves with care to avoid damage to the valve and any of its components
which might lead to a discharge of this energy.

Vacuum Relief Valve
3.0 VRV Installation:
3.1 Vacuum relief valves are designed using three standard mounting styles.
o 2-1/2” NPT
o 2” 150# ANSI Flange (using 5/8” Clearance Hole)
o 1-1/2” 150# ANSI Flange (Using custom gasket size)
3.2 All new valves are set and tested at the McKenzie facility to ensure the quality of the
valve. Prior to installation, the valve should be handled appropriately and inspected to
ensure that the gasket sealing surfaces are clean and undamaged. If damage is found,
the valve will require maintenance.
3.3 As each manufacturer may impose different requirements based on service and design,
install the valve using the tank car manufacturer’s, or other end user’s, specified
materials and procedures.
3.4 The valve is designed to be installed with the cap outside the tank. Inspect the sealing
surfaces and position the appropriate gasket between the valve and its mounting surface.
Carefully lower the valve into position taking care to align the gasket, valve, threads
and/or mounting surface.
3.5 If using a flanged VRV, check to ensure that the fastener threads are clean. As the
fasteners are installed, they should be equally tightened in increments to ensure proper
alignment and even gasket compression. See Figure 1. As a general rule, the increments
should be hand tight, then one third of required torque, then two-thirds, then the complete
torque. The fasteners should not be tightened in a circular, or rotational, pattern as this
may distort the gasket and result in uneven sealing. A criss-cross, or star, pattern should
be used. Once the fasteners are fully tightened, a circular pattern can be used to check
the torques.
4 1
2 3
Figure 1
3.6 After the valve is installed, check for leakage around the newly installed gasket or
threads. If any leaks are detected, the valve should be removed, the valve and mounting
surfaces should be inspected, and a new gasket, O-Ring or thread tape must be
installed.
4.0 VRV Operation:
4.1 The VRV is not meant to be manually operated. This valve is designed for significantly
low forces and the spring is inherently weak. Do not attempt to manually actuate the
valve, as side loading may occur which in turn may damage the spring inside valve.

Vacuum Relief Valve
5.0 VRV Disassembly: (refer to Table 3-10 accompanying figures)
5.1 Read and understand the entire procedure before attempting any service or inspection.
Follow all safety procedures applicable.
5.2 Before disassembling the valve, measure the assembled height of the spring in the valve.
This measurement will be used when assembling the valve.
For Cycling Cap Design (Table 3 and accompanying figure)
5.3 Hold Stem Base (3), remove Nut (5) and Washer (8).
5.4 Remove Cap (2), Spring (4), and Retaining Ring (7)
5.5 Lower Stem (3) through Body (1)
5.6 Remove Quad-Seal (6)
For Non-Cycling Cap Design (Table 4-7 and accompanying figures)
5.7 Remove three Pan Head Screws (8).
5.8 Remove Cap (9)
5.9 Hold Stem Base (3), remove Nut (5) and Washer (7).
5.10 Remove Spring (4)
For Compact VRV Design (Table 8-10 and accompanying figures)

5.13 Carefully remove three Drive Screws (8) by inserting a fine edged screwdriver or similar
under the Cover (2) and slowly prying upward by rotating the screwdriver blade.
5.14 If applicable, remove the two tack welds securing the Cover (2) to the Body (1).
5.15 Remove Cover (2)
5.16 Hold Stem Base (3) from underneath using a standard ratchet and extension, remove Nut
(5) and Washer (7).
5.17 Remove Spring (4)

Vacuum Relief Valve
6.0 VRV Component Inspection:
6.1 When a VRV is removed from an existing application, it must be cleaned and inspected.
6.2 All elastomeric and gasket materials must be removed and discarded. While removing
them, do not use any tools that may cause scratches or grooves. Ensure that all existing
elastomeric and gasket material is removed.
6.3 Inspect the sealing surfaces. For a flat face flange, inspect for scratches that can be
detected by sliding a fingernail across. For O-ring and quad-seal sealing surfaces,
inspect for any scratches on the smooth sealing surface. Any pitting or irregularities,
which can be seen or felt, may be cause for rejecting the part.
6.4 Replace the Cap, Body, and Stem/Plug as necessary. Do not attempt to remachine any
sealing surfaces.
6.5 Clean all threads where oil was applied during disassembly. These may include top
fasteners, the lock nut threads on the stem, and pipe threads on a flanged body.
6.6 Clean and inspect the body of the valve.
6.7 Inspect Stem

1. Wire brush the entire length of stem, if required, to remove scale, solidified product
and any foreign matter.
2. Visually inspect stem for defects and overall condition including threads and stem for
cracks, nicks, and/or pits caused by corrosion, etc., before continuing. Repair work is
limited to cleaning and polishing.
3. If the threads are slightly galled, run the correct size thread die over the affected
area. Stems with severely galled area of thread shall be replaced.
6.8 Inspect Spring

1. Wire brush the entire length of non-coated springs, as needed, to remove scale,
solidified product and any other foreign matter.
2. Visually inspect the spring for damage or cracks. A crack in the spring is cause for
rejection.
7.0 VRV Assembly:
7.1 Inspect all components and ensure they are clean, free of nicks and scratches and are in
proper condition for assembly.
7.2 Select the o-ring, quad-seal, and/or gasket material per customer’s requirements. Clean
and inspect the quad-seal and then apply a very thin film of food grade silicone sealant
compound to the quad-seal. Dow Corning (Molycote) 111 is an acceptable compound,
unless otherwise specified by the customer.
7.3 Insert the quad seal into the stem. See Figure 2.

Vacuum Relief Valve
Figure 2
7.4 Seat the quad-seal into the stem by applying pressure to the OD surface of the quad seal
and rotating the stem at least 360 degrees.
7.5 Install the stem into the body.
For Cycling Cap Design (Table 3 and accompanying figure)
7.6 Hold Stem Base (3), apply Retaining Ring (7), center Spring (4) in Body (1)
7.7 Apply Cap (2), apply Nut (5) and Washer (8).
7.8 Tighten Nut (5) against the Cap (2) until there is no more thread travel.
For Non-Cycling Cap Design (Table 4-6 and accompanying figures)
7.9 Hold Stem Base (3), center Spring (4) in Body (1)
7.10 Apply Nut (5) and Washer (7).
7.11 Tighten Nut (5) against the Washer (7) until there is no more thread travel.
7.12 Apply Cap (9)
7.13 Apply three Pan Head Screws (8).
7.14 Tighten Screws (8) evenly until they are all tight against the cover.

Vacuum Relief Valve
For Compact VRV Design (Table 8-10 and accompanying figures)
7.15 Hold Stem Base (3), center Spring (4) in Body (1)
7.16 Apply Nut (5) and Washer (7).
7.17 Tighten Nut (5) against the Washer (7) until there is no more thread travel.
7.18 Apply Cap (2)
7.19 Apply three Drive Screws (8).
7.20 The Cover (2) must be tack welded to the Body (1) in two places using a 309L electrode
or filler metal.
8.0 VRV Testing:
8.1 Testing methods will vary highly depending on test fixture available. The following is a
guideline and should be tailored to the exact fixture used.
8.2 For Flanged VRVs, bolt or clamp the valve to the fixture
8.3 For threaded VRVs, Thread the valve into the fixture. TFE tape does not need to be
used as the fixture should be designed to seal against an O-ring against the bottom
taper.
Figure 3
8.4 Apply a vacuum to the valve and determine a Set Pressure. This is accomplished by
drawing a vacuum until the valve releases or by drawing a maximum vacuum and
measuring how much is being pulled through the valve. Either method is acceptable.
8.5 Tolerance is as follows:
Range for Start-to-Open (psig) Tolerance (psig) Example

Negative ¾ and up to negative 1 - ¾ and + 0 psig -¾ ( -¾ to -1.5)
Negative 1 and up to negative 5 +/- ½ psig -2 ( -1.5 to -2.5)
Greater vacuum than -5 psig +/- 1 psig -6 ( -5 to -7)
Table 10

Vacuum Relief Valve
8.6 If the valve is not within tolerance, the valve must be disassembled and the spring must
be adjusted by stretching or compression. Alternatively, the washer may be cupped to
achieve minor adjustments.
8.7 After testing for set pressure, the valve should be tested for low positive pressure sealing.
8.8 Apply 2-3 psig positive air or nitrogen pressure to the valve.
8.9 Apply leak detection fluid around the mounting connection to ensure that the valve is not
leaking at that connection.
8.10 Isolate the pressurized valve from the air supply.
8.11 Wait 2-5 seconds for the pressure to equalize. Watch the gauge for one minute.
Pressure loss in excess of 0.2 psig is considered failure and the valve will have to be
rebuilt.
8.12 If the valve passes the 2-3 psig pressure degradation test, apply 80-100 psig positive air
or nitrogen pressure to the valve.
8.13 Isolate the pressurized valve from the air supply.
8.14 Wait 2-5 seconds for the pressure to equalize. Watch the gauge for one minute.
Pressure loss in excess of 5 psig is considered failure and the valve will have to be
rebuilt.
8.15 Remove the valve from the test fixture and apply to tank car or package to keep it clean
from dust and debris.
9.0 VRV Testing on car:
9.1 The Compact VRV can easily be tested on the car.
9.2 The valve has (4) holes around its perimeter. Block these holes with a ring of tape,
earplugs, or other method. They do not have to be completely sealed, only blocked to a
minimal flow which can be detected with leak detection fluid.
9.3 Apply an approved leak detection fluid, Winton Sherlock Type CG is recommended,
around the top cover and the four holes. Any pressure leaking through the valve will
attempt to escape around the hole blockage or the cap and can easily be seen.
9.4 Leakage is grounds for rejection.
