Morrison Brothers 3" AST Overfill Prevention Valve
Installed at the fill port of an aboveground storage tank. Used in a tight fill application, the valve terminates flow of product when the liquid level reaches a preset warning level (90-95% full). The valve is installed on a standard NPT male connection when used with the quick disconnect or female adaptor. The 2" valve can be used in conjunction with the Morrison Fig. 518 and 515 lines of AST spill containers for added spill protection. When installed to manufacturers requirements, the OPV valve can help eliminate environmentally hazardous spills. All models are supplied with an adaptor to mount to Morrison Fig. 419 aluminum drop tubes. ULC listed.
