BM6X Series Slam Shut Valve
BM6X Series axial flow slam-shut valve is an automatic shutoff appliance suitable for installation as a safety device in regulating stations and on gas transfer and distribution lines.
The reduced face-to-face dimension, typical of wafer valves, facilitates installation even in existing regulating stations that are not equipped with shutoff devices. The slam-shut valve is designed to shutoff the flow of gas in the event of the pressure rising above or falling below the predefined levels.
BM6X Series slam-shut valves are “wafer” type with an off-center butterfly disk that is mounted eccentrically. The gas flow causes the slam-shut valve to shutdown and can only be reset manually.
BM6X Series slam-shut valves use gas from the gas line for operation and therefore does not require outside sources to operate.
