OPW 301F-8165 is a weighted, mushroom-style 8" Flange Emergency Vent. When the AST builds pressure, the weighted cast iron lid is forced up off its seat to relieve the pressure. When pressure is relieved, the lid lowers and is automatically reset. The appropriate 301 Series vent is determined by the emergency venting capacity requirements of the AST and the type of connection at the tank’s emergency vent opening. This Emergency Vent is available in 8" opening with flanged connection to allow for easy installation in new or existing aboveground tanks. Various lid pressure settings determine the initial venting of the valve.
