Pulsafeeder L380DT03PVD Five Function Valve
The Pulsafeeder L380DT03PVD is a genuine five function valve for the discharge of Pulsafeeder diaphragm metering pumps, built in PVDF for corrosive chemical service and set for pumps rated at 100 PSI. It combines five jobs in one compact body: pressure relief if the discharge line is blocked, back pressure to keep output repeatable, anti-siphon protection, an air bleed for priming, and a discharge drain for depressurizing the line.
Anti-siphon matters whenever the injection point sits below the pump or the chemical is fed into a suction line, where the pump would otherwise keep feeding with the power off. The back pressure function also lets the pump meter accurately into an open tank or atmospheric discharge. The discharge drain lets you release line pressure before any fitting is loosened, which keeps the operator away from pressurized chemical. The pressure relief side opens at roughly 50 percent above the valve rating, so it protects tubing and fittings without interfering with normal metering. Match the valve pressure rating to the pump rating and the tubing connection to your discharge tubing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does it replace the injection valve?
No. It mounts at the pump discharge, and the injection valve stays at the injection point. They do different jobs.
Q: Where does the relief and drain line go?
Back to the chemical supply tank. Relieved or drained chemical must be returned safely, never left open to the floor.
Q: Can I use it on a higher pressure pump?
Only a valve matched to the pump rating should be used. A 100 PSI valve on a higher pressure pump would relieve during normal metering.
Q: What wears out first?
The diaphragm and O-rings inside the valve. A valve that is weeping or relieving early should be rebuilt or replaced.
