 Atmospheric Rupture Indicator

Atmospheric Rupture Indicators are used to

signal excessive pressure in divider valve
type lubrication systems.
The Atmospheric Rupture Indicator employs
a Rupture Disc which will burst at a
predetermined pressure, automatically
relieving pressure.
Pressures Available:
900, 1175, 1450, 1750, 2050, 2350, 2950 and
3250 PSI with Standard Cap (0.250 Orifice)
3700, 4600, 5500 and 6400 PSI with High
Pressure Cap (0.125 Orifice)
Disc’s are color coded for identification
