Valves
GMC stocks a variety of valves for gas control applications at various pressure ranges. Control of some gases such as oxygen demand special consideration and certain valves are NEVER O2 compatible. Engineering questions should be directed only to our TEK department at 414-774-1616 or techsupport@gmcscuba.com.
These special valves are used to protect pressure-sensitive components or to relieve pressure at some prescribed level in compressed air systems. Standard relief valves are designed for sudden, intermittent, and sporadic service, whereas “floater valves" activate slowly and are employed where frequent and prolonged valve openings may regularly occur.

These special devices create one-way gas flow in compressor lines, filter systems, and gas distribution panels. Brass types are suitable for pressures to 3,000 psi; stainless models for 5,000 psi service. These are NOT suitable for O2 / Nitrox use (See valves #45280-82).
