Phantom III - Radiator Steam Valve.

We send you herewith:-

LeC.4931 which is No.3. design for the above.
This consists of a thermoflex bellows for the carrying of the valve.

The size chosen conveniently drops into the existing pot and there is no alteration to the top screwed cap. A new standpipe is necessary because we want a conical valve seat.

The rating of the bellows should give approximately the desired blow-off pressure.

LeC.4931 herewith.
