Peter Paul Excellence

Series EL 50 Model EL53

Low Wattage Hazardous Location
3-Way Normally Closed Valve (exhaust to atmosphere)

Peter Paul explosion proof valves are used where fire or explosion hazards exist due to the presence of flammable gases or vapors, flammable liquids, combustible dust, or easily ignitable fibers. Hazardous Location valves are recommended, or in some cases compulsory, where a high level of protection from explosion is required.

• Miniature Hazardous Location valves using even less power than an E53.
• Flame-Proof construction.
• High quality engineering.

OPERATING CONDITIONS

Media: Air and other common gases and common refrigerants except ammonia, city gas supplies by public utilities, Nos. 1 and 2 fuel oils, oils having viscosities not more than 40, SU at 100° F, steam, some hydraulic and water or other aqueous non-flammable liquids. Some media require special seal material. (Series 50 pressure ratings may change due to the viscosity of the liquid.)*
Valve Temperature Range: Standard Valves – 0°F (-18°C) to 104°F (40°C) ambient; 0°F (-18°C) to 150°F (65°C) media. Optional Valves – can tolerate much higher or much lower ambient and media temperatures.*

NOTE: “G” Marked prior to the valve number denotes Gang Feeding.
“E” Marked prior to the valve number denotes Explosion Proof.
“H” Marked prior to the valve number denotes High Pressure Valve. “F” Marked prior to the valve number denotes Filter Valve.
Where numerous options are specified, valves will be marked with 2 numbers to identify valve series and type, followed by specifically assigned numbers.
* For 3 way valves this number will consist of two suffix letters. The first indicates the inlet orifice & the second the exhaust orifice. ** For valves with a combination of two standard body options, this suffix will consist of two letters.
**** In Series 70 -1/16 - 5/16 Orifice.
† For series H high pressure valves only.
†† 2 in Series 15 is 1/8 NPT Aluminum only.
††† Letter K followed by “M” in 7th digit column indicates molded spade terminal coil & yoke.
