MTP 400 Series tank blanketing valves maintain a positive pressure within an enclosed storage tank by introducing a gas such as nitrogen at a required pressure.

This ‘blanket’ also prevents the stored product from vaporizing into the atmosphere, prevents contamination of the stored product and also helps to reduce product combustibility by eliminating oxygen-rich air.

Tank blanketing valves offer complete protection to the storage tank product against contamination and to the storage tank itself against rupture or damage. This type of valve is mainly used in the chemical, bulk storage, and pharmaceutical industries to reduce emissions and lower the cost of product loss. In addition to preventing outside air and moisture from entering the storage vessel, a blanket gas pressure reduces the evaporation of the stored product to a negligible amount.

MTP 400 Series also offer primary vacuum relief for the storage tank. It does this by supplying gas to the vapor space when pressure decreases within the tank to the valves set point. Once the gas cushion is re-established, the pressure regulator closes..

Available in a range of sizes from 15mm to 100mm.
