Data retrieval, event recording and transmission module connectable to safety and relief valves. The module (10) coupled to safety or relief valves for the measurement, transmission and recording of events and includes a rigid and inextensible at room temperature longitudinal element defining an acoustic emission waveguide (12) that transmits vibrations. The end (12a) of (12) is in intimate contact with a portion (2) or (1) of the valve, and its other end (12b) penetrates inside a closed resistant box (10), wherein it sits in contact against at least one acoustic emission sensor (13) receiving a signal proportional to the vibrations transmitted by the waveguide (12).

A check valve bleed assembly eliminates the requirement for a person to enter the red zone when bleeding the grease out of a gate or other valve. A gas or other fluid is provided to the check valve bleed assembly. The gas or other fluid acts upon the surface driving a pin into the associated check valve with sufficient force to overcome the resistance of the object sitting on a seat and moves the object off of the seat. The force is maintained as long as is necessary. Usually, the check valve is held open until the gate transitions into the gate's associated gate recess thereby displacing the grease within the gate recess through the check valve, into the check valve bleed assembly, and finally to a waste collection tube. In some embodiments a gate valve greasing access port is included in the check valve bleed assembly such that grease may be injected into the check valve bleed assembly.

A pressure relief valve flap includes an attachment portion, a main portion, and a hinge portion. The attachment portion is configured to be attached to the housing. The main portion has a lip and at least one damping feature. The lip extends around at least a portion of a periphery of the main portion. The hinge portion is disposed between and connects the main portion and the attachment portion. When the attachment portion is attached to the housing, the main portion is configured to move between a closed position and an opened position. When the main portion moves from the opened position to the closed position, the at least one damping feature is configured to engage the housing prior to the lip of the main portion and thereby dampen noise created when the lip of the main portion engages the housing.

A pressure relief valve may comprise a housing, a disk, and a seal. The disk may be configured to deflect relative to the housing. The seal may form a sealing interface with at least one of the housing or disk. The pressure relief valve may be coupled to an inflatable slide or an aspirator.

A double check valve is provided that includes an in-line inlet check valve and an outlet check valve that cooperate to prevent back flow of fluid through the valve. The check valve also includes at least one vent that allows for fluid trapped within the check valve to drain, thereby preventing freezing of the check valve and hydrant to which it is interconnected. The check valve provided omits many superfluous components and thus is smaller and easier to install than check valves of the prior art.

The disclosed technology can include a bypass valve assembly having a partition that can fluidly separate an inlet and an outlet of a fluid heating system. A first bypass valve and a second bypass valve can be mounted to the partition and configured to permit a fluid to flow between the inlet and the outlet. The first bypass valve and the second bypass valve can be configured to transition between a closed state and an open state. The first bypass valve and the second bypass valves can each have a spring configured to transition the respective first and second bypass valve from the closed state in response to experiencing a pressure that is greater than or equal to a respective first or second predetermined pressure. The second predetermined pressure can be greater than the first predetermined pressure.

A hydraulic cylinder device includes: a pump; a valve body disposed so as to partition an inside of a chamber into chambers; and a non-return valve including a movable member, an elastic member and a support member. The movable member moves to open/close one opening portion that is an opening portion on the one chamber side in a case that forms a flow channel from the one chamber toward an exterior. The elastic member gives force to the movable member in a direction to close the one opening portion, and has one end portion supported by the movable member. The support member is disposed to close an opening portion on the exterior side in the case to support the other end portion of the elastic member, and has a through hole that serves as a throttle of the flow channel from the one chamber toward the exterior.

A capacity control valve includes: a valve body having first communication passages, second communication passages, third communication passages, and a main valve seat; a valve element having an intermediate communication passage, a main valve portion and an auxiliary valve portion; a pressure-sensitive element disposed in the valve body; a solenoid that drives a rod; a first biasing member that biases in a valve closing direction of the main valve portion; and a second biasing member that biases in a valve opening direction of the main valve portion, wherein the rod moves relative to the valve element to press the pressure-sensitive element. The capacity control valve can efficiently discharge a liquid refrigerant and can decrease a driving force of a compressor during a liquid refrigerant discharge operation.
