The Elcometer Certified 13mm Pressure Relief Valve (part numbers MT28606, MT28606N, MT28607 and MT28607N) is a safety valve fitted to abrasive blast machine systems to discharge compressed air when pressure reaches the crack point. Pressure relief valves must be incorporated into the blast machine system to meet global safety standards, since an over-pressurised machine presents a serious hazard to operators and equipment.
The Certified 13mm Pressure Relief Valve fits easily to the air manifold mounted on the RCV4000+ remote control valve. When pressure in the machine rises to the rated crack pressure, the valve opens and releases the compressed air, preventing the system from exceeding safe working limits.
The range covers two maximum working pressures and two thread standards. The MT28606 and MT28606N are rated to a maximum working pressure of 12bar; the MT28607 and MT28607N are rated to 15bar. BSP-threaded versions (MT28606, MT28607) suit PED installations, while the NPT / NPSM versions (MT28606N, MT28607N) suit ASME installations. Choose the thread type and pressure rating to match your blast machine setup.
Used across surface preparation and abrasive blasting operations in coatings, corrosion and marine work, these valves are supplied by BAMR, South Africa's authorised Elcometer distributor.
Certified 13mm Pressure Relief Valve
Pressure relief valves must be incorporated into the blast machine system to meet global safety standards. Elcometer's certified pressure relief valves can be easily fitted to the air manifold which is fitted to the RCV4000+ remote control valve. Pressure relief valves are designed to discharge the compressed air in the blast machine upon reaching the crack pressure.
When to use the Certified 13mm Pressure Relief Valve
Fit this Elcometer certified pressure relief valve to a blast machine to meet global safety standards on the air system. It mounts to the air manifold on the RCV4000+ remote control valve and discharges the compressed air once the crack pressure is reached. It is available in 12 bar and 15 bar ratings with BSP or NPT/NPSM threads.
- 1Meets global safety standardsA pressure relief valve is required for the blast machine to comply with global safety standards, so this is a compliance part not an optional extra.
- 2Discharges at crack pressureIt vents the compressed air once crack pressure is reached, protecting the machine and operators from overpressure.
- 3Thread and rating choices12 bar and 15 bar options in BSP or NPT/NPSM let you match the valve to your machine's working pressure and thread standard.

Frequently asked questions
Which model should I order: PED or ASME?
PED models (MT28606, MT28607) meet European standards, whilst ASME models (MT28606N, MT28607N) meet American standards. Choose based on your equipment's certification requirements.
What is the difference between the 12bar and 15bar versions?
The 12bar models (MT28606, MT28606N) discharge air at a lower pressure setting, whilst the 15bar models (MT28607, MT28607N) handle higher working pressures. Select according to your blast system's design specifications.
Will this valve fit my existing blast machine?
The valve mounts to the air manifold on the RCV4000+ remote control valve. Verify your system has an RCV4000+ fitted before ordering.
What thread type do I need: BSP, NPT, or NPSM?
BSP threads are standard on PED models (MT28606, MT28607). ASME models (MT28606N, MT28607N) use NPT or NPSM. Confirm your air manifold's thread type before placing your order.
How does the pressure relief valve protect my blast system?
The valve automatically discharges compressed air once the crack pressure is reached, preventing overpressurisation of your blast machine. This design meets global safety standards.
Are spare parts available for the pressure gauge?
Yes. Pressure Gauges (MT30537 for PED, MT30537N for ASME) and Pressure Gauge Connection Assemblies (MT30539 for PED, MT30539N for ASME) are stocked as spares.
