Function and Description
Highly Developed Vacuum Relief Valve
The VN-VL-L type PROTEGO® valve is a highly developed
vacuum relief valve
Vacuum relief valve
A vacuum relief valve is used to ventilate a part of the system and protects it from impermissible underpressure.

device
Device
A device is a pipe component that influences the media flow by opening, closing, or partially shutting off the flow channel or by dividing or mixing the media flow.

Vacuum
Vacuum is the pressure in an enclosed space that is lower than the ambient pressure.

equipment
Equipment
Machines, appliances, fixed or mobile devices, control parts and accessories, and warning and prevention systems, whether separate or combined, intended for the generation, transfer, storage, measurement, control, and conversion of energy, and for the processing of materials, which have their own potential source of ignition and may cause an explosion.
. The valve offers reliable protection against vacuum and prevents in-breathing of air close to the set pressure.
Full Lift Technology
The device will start to open as soon as the set pressure is reached and only requires 10%

Overpressure
Overpressure refers to an increase in pressure in a system or vessel above the normal operating pressure.
to reach full lift. Continuous investments in and a commitment to research and development have allowed PROTEGO® to develop a low pressure valve which has the same opening characteristics as a high pressure safety relief valve.
This “full lift type” technology allows the valve to be set at just 10% below the maximum allowable working pressure of the tank and still safely vent the required mass flow.
Advanced manufacturing technology
Due to our highly developed manufacturing technology, the
