Midland Industries Safety Valves

Overview

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 87001 is a brass-body safety valve rated at 70 psi and 70 cfm, designed to protect pneumatic systems from dangerous overpressure conditions. When system pressure exceeds the set limit, the valve opens automatically to vent excess air, preventing equipment damage or failure. The 1/4-inch male pipe thread (MPT) connection with a 1/4-18 thread size makes it straightforward to install in standard compressed-air piping. The all-brass construction offers good corrosion resistance in typical shop and industrial air environments. This valve is an ASME coded safety valve, meeting recognized pressure-relief standards for compressor system applications. This safety valve is suited for use on air compressors and pneumatic systems in light industrial, commercial, and trade shop settings. It is typically installed at or near the compressor tank or pressure vessel to provide overpressure protection. The compact size and standard MPT thread make it a practical fit for new installations and direct replacement work on single-stage and small two-stage reciprocating compressors. Pneumatic system mechanics, maintenance technicians, and HVAC service professionals commonly install this type of valve. Key Features Set pressure of 70 psi provides overpressure relief for compatible pneumatic compressor systems Flow capacity of 70 cfm handles adequate venting volume for light industrial compressor applications 1/4-inch MPT connection with 1/4-18 thread size fits standard…
