1. Introducció
This instruction manual provides essential information for the proper installation, operation, and maintenance of the TeeJet 23120-3/4-PP Pressure Relief Valve. Adhering to these guidelines will ensure optimal performance and longevity of the product. Please read this manual thoroughly before using the valve.
2. Informació de seguretat
Avís: Always depressurize the system before attempting any installation, adjustment, or maintenance on the valve. Failure to do so can result in serious injury or equipment damage.
- Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when handling the valve and working with pressurized systems.
- Ensure all connections are secure and leak-free before operating the system.
- Do not exceed the maximum operating pressure specified for this valve.
- Consult a qualified professional if you are unsure about any installation or operation procedures.
3. Producte acabatview
The TeeJet 23120-3/4-PP is a piston-type pressure relief/regulating valve designed to control line pressure by bypassing excess liquid. It features an adjustable design for precise pressure control and is constructed with durable materials for chemical resistance.

Figura 1: TeeJet 23120-3/4-PP Pressure Relief Valve. This image shows the black polypropylene body of the valve with a white adjustment knob at the top. It has a 3/4-inch inlet/outlet connection and a 1/4-inch FPT gauge port.
Característiques principals:
- Piston-type design for effective pressure regulation.
- Adjustable pressure setting with a secure locknut.
- Extra-large valve passages for handling large flow rates.
- Constructed with a 302 stainless steel spring and EPDM O-ring for chemical resistance.
- Includes a 1/4" port for pressure gauge pipe plug for convenient monitoring.
- Inlet and Pipe Connection: 3/4"
4. Configuració i instal·lació
Proper installation is crucial for the safe and efficient operation of the pressure relief valve. Follow these steps carefully:
- Sistema de despressurització: Ensure the entire system is depressurized and isolated before beginning installation.
- Seleccioneu la ubicació: Install the valve in a location that allows for easy access for adjustment and maintenance. It is typically installed at the tank return or bypass line.
- Preparar connexions: The valve features 3/4" inlet and pipe connections. Apply appropriate thread sealant (e.g., Teflon tape) to all threaded connections to ensure a leak-free seal.
- Connect Valve: Securely connect the valve to the system piping. Ensure the flow direction is correct, if applicable.
- Install Pressure Gauge (Optional): If desired, install a pressure gauge into the 1/4" FPT gauge port to monitor system pressure. Use appropriate thread sealant.
- Inspeccionar connexions: Visually inspect all connections for tightness and proper alignment.
- Sistema de pressurització: Slowly re-pressurize the system and check for any leaks. Address any leaks immediately before proceeding.
5. Instruccions de funcionament
The TeeJet 23120-3/4-PP valve functions by bypassing excess fluid to maintain a set pressure. It is designed to regulate pressure rather than simply release it and then close completely.
- Configuració de la pressió inicial: With the system operating, turn the white adjustment knob (visible at the top of the valve in Figure 1) clockwise to increase the set pressure or counter-clockwise to decrease it.
- Monitor de pressió: Use a pressure gauge connected to the 1/4" port to accurately monitor the system pressure while making adjustments.
- Secure Setting: Once the desired operating pressure is achieved, tighten the locknut located beneath the adjustment knob to secure the setting and prevent accidental changes.
- Funció de bypass: Understand that this valve will continuously bypass fluid once the set pressure is reached, maintaining that pressure by diverting excess flow. It does not fully close after a pressure spike.
6. Manteniment
Regular maintenance ensures the reliable operation and extends the lifespan of your TeeJet pressure relief valve.
- Inspecció periòdica: Periodically inspect the valve for any signs of wear, damage, or leaks. Check the integrity of the polypropylene body and connections.
- Neteja: If the valve is exposed to corrosive chemicals or debris, flush it with clean water after use to prevent buildup and corrosion.
- O-Ring and Spring Check: The valve contains a 302 stainless steel spring and EPDM O-ring. If pressure regulation becomes inconsistent or leaks occur, these components may need inspection or replacement.
- Emmagatzematge d'hivern: If the valve is part of a system that will be stored in freezing conditions, ensure all water is drained from the valve and associated plumbing to prevent damage from ice expansion.
- Substitució de components: Use only genuine TeeJet replacement parts for any repairs to ensure compatibility and performance.
