    The Cla-Val Model 55L-60 (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 bottom plug may be removed and installed in the inlet to convert it
    to an angle pattern flow path.

    The Model 55L-60 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 internal passage. A gauge port is provided for accurate pressure
    setting.

    Pressure adjustment is done by turning the adjusting screw to vary the spring
    Available in a wide range of materials including
    load on the diaphragm. The 55L-60 is available in pressure ranges suited to
    nickel aluminum bronze and stainless steel.
    agency approval tests. To prevent tampering, the adjustment cap can be wire
    Certified to meet low lead requirements
    sealed by using the lock wire holes provided in the cap and cover.

    Typical Application for Fresh Water or Seawater Service

    Fire Protection System Service


    The Model 55L-60 is typically used in a
    fire protection system to trim water
    pressure, thus preventing pressure build-
    up whenever line pressure exceeds the
    setting of the spring.

    The 55L-60 will relieve excess pressure to


    atmosphere to prevent damage to the
    distribution network.

    NOTE: Model 55L-60 is not suitable for


    discharging the full-rated pump capacity of Fire Pump Casing
    a fire pump. See Model 50B-4KG1 Fire
