BADGER

Balanced Actuator Valves

BAV SERIES

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The Badger BAV is a remote Balanced Actuator Valve designed to provide high gas venting flow rates suitable for the largest bulk storage tanks. The Badger can be triggered by any one of multiple Emcara PRD’s in a system; enabling multiple large tanks to vent rapidly while preventing cross-flow between tanks. The Badger is a complimentary product to Emcara PRD’s and provides system design flexibility and flow rates in excess of those provided by PRD’s.

FEATURES

The robust stainless-steel construction of the BAV, ensures reliable operation in the harshest environmental conditions. Emcara’s BAV is manufactured from a solid block of stainless steel to the highest standards, resulting in a device that vents gas rapidly and safely, from a strategic location within the PRD system.
