Emerson Fisher's N100 Series is designed for bypass on 2 to 4 in. size pumps, the N100 Series is widely used on both LPG and Anhydrous Ammonia (NH₃) applications. The throttling action of the N100 series allows only surplus pump discharge to be returned to the tank. A venturi flow passage gives a boost effect, permitting a greater valve opening for increased flow at the lower pressure build-ups when bypassing full pump output. These features help to give rapid, stable liquid transfer and reduce dangerous pressure pulsations. The valves contain only one moving part- the piston style inner valve.
An external sensing line is not required because tank pressure registers through a hole in the inner valve. Complete field servicing can be made without removing the valve from the piping.
Note: All N100 Series bodies have 1/4 in. FNPT tapped and plugged boss on the side inlet for either a pressure gauge or a hydrostatic relief valve and have a temperature rating of -20 to 160°F (-29 to 71°C)
