Highly Developed Vacuum Relief Valve
The VN-VU Type PROTEGO® valve is a highly developed vacuum relief valve with excellent flow performance. It is primarily used as a device for relieving vacuum in tanks, containers, and process engineering equipment. The valve offers reliable protection against vacuum and prevents in-breathing of air close to the set pressure.

Full Lift Technology
The device will start to open as soon as the set pressure is reached and only requires 10% overpressure to reach full lift. Continuous investments in and a commitment to research and development have allowed PROTEGO® to develop a low pressure valve which has the same opening characteristics as a high pressure safety relief valve. This “Full Lift Type” technology allows the valve to be set at just 10% below the maximum allowable working pressure of the tank and still safely vent the required mass flow.

Advanced Manufacturing Technology
Due to our highly developed manufacturing technology, the tank pressure is maintained up to set pressure with a tightness that is far superior to the conventional standard. This feature is achieved by valve seat made of high quality stainless steel and with precisely lapped valve pallets (1). After the vacuum is released, the valve reseats and provides a tight seal again.
