Feature: In-line excess flow shut-off valve with a G3/8 port and a 4.4 psi operating threshold. Business impact: It prevents uncontrolled flow during fault events, reducing the risk of unplanned downtime, backflow to compressors, and equipment damage while maintaining a safe system pressure profile. Application: Ideal for pneumatic circuits in packaging lines, robotic cells, or assembly stations where rapid isolation is required, tamper-proof operation is valued, and a low pressure drop helps the performance of the primary compressor. Feature: Broad operating range and compatibility: -20 to 80 C, 0-16 bar (0-232 psi). Business impact: Supports diverse environments from cold washdowns to hot plant floors, ensuring stable operation across seasonal and process variations, minimizing the need for frequent recalibration. Application: Suitable for general compressed air networks in OEM applications, with minimal thermal management concerns. Feature: Aluminium body with high corrosion resistance. Business impact: Extends service life and reduces maintenance costs in challenging environments, contributing to lower total cost of ownership. Application: Readily compatible with standard industrial fittings and washdown conditions. Feature: Compact, tamper-proof design with automatic reset after fault. Business impact: Keeps line pressure under control with minimal operator intervention, enabling faster line recovery after a fault. Application: Critical safety interlocks and line protection across automation PLC integrations. Feature: Accessible CAD and datasheet assets for rapid integration. Business impact: Cuts engineering time, reduces commissioning risk, and streamlines BOM integration. Application: Ideal for OEM design processes and factory floor migrations, with easy import into CAD models for quick validation.

FAQs
Install the T60C3891 inline on the compressed air line using standard G3/8 fittings. Position for easy reset and inspection, and take advantage of the aluminium body’s corrosion resistance in washdown environments. Ensure your supply can deliver 0-16 bar, and verify the 0.23 dm3/sec flow. Wire to the controller and rely on automatic reset after fault to minimize downtime.
The valve operates from 0 to 16 bar (0–232 psi) and passes up to 0.23 dm3/sec, with a 4.4 psi release setting. This delivers a compact, low pressure drop solution suitable for tight automation lines, while maintaining safe operation under peak demand. It’s designed for reliable cycling and quick isolation when needed.
Yes. The T60C3891 is designed to prevent uncontrolled venting and line surges, supporting safety practices and regulatory risk mitigation. Its tamper-proof construction and compact form factor aid compliant installations, while the aluminium body provides robust corrosion resistance. It’s well-suited for packaging, assembly, and other automated production environments requiring reliable line protection.
The datasheet indicates safety-focused design with robustness suitable for CE conformity and common industrial safety expectations. Specific certifications such as SIL readiness and IP ratings are not explicitly listed in the provided data, so consult the datasheet and CAD assets for exact certification details and regional compliance requirements before deployment.
Automatic reset after fault reduces manual intervention, and the tamper-proof, compact aluminium design lowers maintenance downtime and replacement costs. The valve’s corrosion resistance and low pressure drop improve overall system efficiency and reliability, contributing to faster ROI through reduced downtime, longer service life, and simpler retrofits in OEM and repair operations.
