The Elcometer RCV4000+ Remote Control Valve 38mm (PED part number RCV4000P-150B, ASME part number RCV4000P-150N) is a pneumatic remote control valve that combines two valves in one unit, the lower controlling the compressed air inlet and the upper controlling the exhaust outlet as air exits the abrasive blast machine. It lets the operator control and depressurise the blast machine from the nozzle, a requirement for safe abrasive blasting.
A constant flow of compressed air is supplied at the lower 38mm air inlet port and released through the 38mm air outlet to the blast machine and blast hose. Control is by a pneumatic deadman's handle connected to 6mm inlet and outlet ports on the side of the Elcometer RCV4000+ Remote Control Valve 38mm through two airline hoses, known as twinline. Closing the deadman's lever activates both valves simultaneously and releasing it deactivates the RCV4000+ immediately. A red safety petcock on the valve body acts as an emergency stop, depressurising the system.
The RCV4000+ includes an integrated air manifold with multiple air outlets for ancillary equipment such as pressure gauges, ball vibration units, breathe air filters and pressure relief valves. It is available in three sizes: 19mm for the Elcometer 1020 Blast Machine, this 38mm version for larger Elcometer machines, and 32mm for other blast machines. Supplied by BAMR, South Africa's authorised Elcometer distributor.

Frequently asked questions
How does the RCV4000+ control air in a blast system?
The valve combines two functions in one unit. The lower valve regulates compressed air inlet, whilst the upper valve manages the exhaust outlet as air exits the blast machine.
What port sizes does the RCV4000+ require?
The 38mm model has 38mm air inlet and outlet ports for main airflow. Control ports are 6mm for piloting the valve operations.
What safety features does the RCV4000+ include?
The valve incorporates an integrated safety petcock for pressure relief. This provides overpressure protection during operation and a manual vent point for maintenance.
Are spare parts readily available for this valve?
Yes. A comprehensive range of spare parts is stocked, including seals, gaskets, valve seats, pistons, and adapters. Service kits MT30055 through MT30072 and MT28605 provide pre-assembled component sets for maintenance.
