Blowtie Spunding Valve Complete Kit

Blowtie Spunding Valve Complete Kit

This kit has been designed for simplicity and ease of putting together.

If you want to control the pressure retained in a pressure vessel that is releasing pressure then the BlowTie Diaphram Spunding Valve is the tool for the job.

The adjustment knob on the top of the unit makes it easy to increase and decrease the set pressure.

This BlowTie unit can be easily dissassembled for cleaning using a phillips head screw driver.

This Spunding Valve Kit Includes:

1 x Blow Tie Spunding Valve

1 x duotight 8mm tee piece

1 x duotight FFL to 8mm fitting

1 x 8mm Push in 0-40psi Guage

1 x Premium Ball Lock Disconnect (MFL) Grey/Gas

2 x NEW Black 8mm straight joiner pieces

Pressure Fermentation

With pressurised fermentation becoming ever more popular for home brewers it has become increasingly important to have a method of regulating and controlling the residual pressure from the fermentation process. The BlowTie has been designed specifically for this reason.

Pressure Transfers

When transferring from keg to keg, keg to bottle, or fermenter to keg it often a good idea to have head pressure in the keg you are filling into especially if you are transferring a beverage that is carbonated. For this reason the BlowTie can consistently control this head pressure giving you more consistent results and without losing carbonation in the process.

Traditional spunding valves that use a simple spring against a seal are flawed right from the beginning as the physical aspects of the design dictate that you will have a significant difference between the opening pressure and closing pressure during operation. Brewers have tolerated this imperfection for long enough and now you can control these pressures far more accurately.

The BlowTie has been made completely differently taking advantage of a diaphragm to actuate the sealing mechanism that will release pressure from the pressure vessel with much more accurate control pressure.

Instructions:

Use the yellow adjustment knob to control the pressure coming out of the pressure vessel. Clockwise is higher pressure and anticlockwise is lower pressure.

We would recommend gassing a keg to a known pressure e.g. 15psi then attach your Blow Tie Kit to the keg and adjust to 10psi.

Specifications:

1. Made from food grade acetal

2. Stainless screws

3. 8mm (5/16) push on both sides

4. 0-40psi pressure rating

Please note: The black joiners are a semi-permanent fitting. You will not be able to remove the fittings easily. If you would like to have a completely removable fitted kit we would suggest using EVABarrier 4mm ID or 5mm ID hose as the joining pieces.
