What Is a Quick Release Valve

Oct 16,2022

A Quick Release Valve is a valve that quickly exhausts air from a controlled device. These valves are typically located adjacent to the controlled device. Their rapid release minimizes the time needed to release the controlled device. They are also designed to eliminate the return of exhaust air. For these reasons, they are widely used in emergency situations.

Suction cup
A Quick Release Valve suction cup can save energy in various applications. The valve works by releasing pressure when the part comes in contact with it. It is particularly helpful in cases where compressed air consumption is a concern. Moreover, it prevents the loss of power during the movement of heavy parts held by suction cups.

Diaphragm
The quick release valve comprises an overlapping diaphragm and an annular valve seat. The outer periphery of the diaphragm cooperates with the seat 204 to direct the flow of fluid between ports 178 and 184. The plug portion 210 of the diaphragm is biased into sealing engagement with the valve seat 212 by a spring 206 and a spring retainer 208. The fluid pressure in the conduit 170 acts on the upper surface of the diaphragm to press it against the seat 212.

Spring-biased plunger
A spring-biased plunger for a quick release valve has a lower end that engages with a portion of the base 12's wall. This design prevents the plunger from rotating and limits its movement.

Aluminum die-cast
The Aluminum die-cast quick release valve from Phillips is made of corrosion-resistant aluminum and is used in air chambers to increase the speed of exhausting air. Its unique design features an internal diaphragm, which helps it release air quickly. The valve also features a rugged die-cast aluminum body.

Nitrile poppet
A Nitrile poppet for quick release valve is a type of poppet that is used in quick release valves. They are made to withstand pressures of up to 5,000 PSI. They come with a one-inch NPT connection and are rated for use in -40 degrees F to 250 degrees F. They are also available in a stainless steel version.

Compound braking
The Quick Release Valve for compound braking is one of many components of your vehicle's air brake system. It is responsible for preventing the parking and main brakes from operating simultaneously. This feature reduces the durability of the wheel brakes by preventing the parking brake from actuating when the main brake is still operating.

Air brake system
A Quick Release Valve for an air brake system is a mechanical device that provides brake pressure to the wheels of the vehicle. It has an integrated, movable hollow piston that communicates with the spring brake chamber through its supply and delivery ports. The valve has a fourth port that communicates with the ambient and a fifth port that selectively connects to the spring brake chamber.

Installation
The Quick Release Valve (QRV) is a brake system valve designed to limit the amount of pressure that can be applied to the front axle. It works by accelerating the exhaust of air from its air chambers. There are two types of QRVs: the standard and the zero hysteresis type. The standard valve has an 11/32" mounting hole and comes with optional foam crosses that reduce noise.
