Mercer Pressure Relief Valves

ASME Section XIII UV-Stamped Relief Valves for Gas and Liquid Service

Relief valves that hold their set pressure

A-Best Industrial is an authorized Mercer Valve distributor. Mercer pressure relief valves are built in Oklahoma City. Mercer's Auto Seat Technology® uses a low-rated, fully guided spring and a non-rising stem to hold set pressure consistently and extend valve life. Their soft-seat, pop-action spring valves reach full lift at set pressure, and their pilot-operated valves cover larger sizes and higher pressures. Every series is ASME Section XIII UV stamped.

Tell us your set pressure, media and size, and we'll help you pick the right valve. Full specs are on Mercer's product pages.
