    Relief Valve Maintnenace Requirements



    What are the requirements for testing or replacement of relief valves in refrigeration service. These are inline valves with NB stamps usually manufactured by Henry or Mueller?

    Hi guys
    I work for Henry and keep a look out in this site for any issuse i can help with.

    I have seen our valves last about 10yrs, BUT we recommend changing every 5 yrs. this is in line with EN13136 Refrig standards. Also note some isurance companies say to change every 3 yrs.
