Open Atmospheric Vents
Always-open aluminium vent caps for the vent pipes of underground and aboveground fuel storage tanks, with a screen that keeps out water, debris and insects.
Manufactured in Vadodara, Gujarat, India by Pressure and Flow Control Industries since 1975.
Overview
Open atmospheric vents are installed on the top of vent pipes from underground or aboveground fuel storage tanks. The vent cap and internal wire screen are designed to protect the tank vent lines against intrusion and blockage from water, debris or insects. These vents are always open to atmosphere and allow any pressure or vacuum in the tank to vent.
How it works
The Model 2054 stays open to atmosphere, so any pressure or vacuum in the tank vents through it. The vent cap drain spouts extend outward to stop rainwater entering, and an internal 40-mesh brass wire screen keeps debris and insects out of the vent line.
Applications
- Diesel, fuel oil, waste oil and motor oil tanks
- A wide variety of aboveground storage tank venting applications
