Snort valve
A snort valve is used to regulate the flow of cold blasts going to the hot-blast stoves and vent out the
excess quantity to the atmosphere through a blow-off device and silencer without disturbing the
blower.
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION:
The valve mainly consists of the main control valve, exhaust valve, silencer, mechanical linkages, and
drive mechanism. The main control valve is connected to the vent valve either through a mechanical
linkage or a connecting rod to the disc in the exhaust valve. The synchronization between two valves is
such that when the main valve is open the vent valve is completely closed and vice versa. This valve can
be supplied with or without a silencer.
SPECIAL FEATURES
- Specially designed silencer reduces the noise level of blow-off air jet within permissible limits of 85 Db.
