RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES

Exhaust Silencer

Positive displacement blowers are inherently noisy due to their design.  NVE 

offers compatible silencers for the exhaust to reduce decibel levels in the 

operating environment.

If using a non-OEM silencer, it should be tested for effectiveness by blanking 

off the inlet and monitoring exhaust gas temperature with the blower run-

ning for at least one hour.  The blower should not exceed specified exhaust 

gas temperatures.

Inlet Filter

The intake filters are designed to ensure maximum airflow efficiency why 

keeping out unwanted debris.  The filters supplied by NVE use a stainless 

steel screen and can be cleaned.

Four Way Valve and Hoses

If it is intended to operate the blower in the pressure mode, a four way valve 

will be required.  The 4-way valve size should match the hose size used in the 

application.

Pressure Relief Valve

 If the blower is intended to be used in pressure mode then a pressure relief 

valve is required.  NVE recommends the use of Kunkle pressure relief valves 

as they have been proven to work well and have sufficient flow capacity.  The 

valves we supply are factory set to 10 PSI and are sealed.  We do not recom-

mend the blower to be operated over 10 PSI nor do we recommend the use 

of imported relief valves.

Vacuum Relief Valve

Vacuum relief valves are not typically needed with NVE blowers.  If the ap-

plication indicates the use of a vacuum relief valve would be called for, we 

recommend you thoroughly test your blower system to confirm the desired 

performance is reached (i.e. tank protection or overheat protection).  We 

would recommend the use of a high quality vacuum relief valve such as 

Kunkle.
