A Partnership
Broady Flow Control are the exclusive agents for the UK and Irish markets, in addition to other key non-US markets, for
the new CE marked Flow Safe range of Pilot Operated Valves.
Broady assemble and test each valve in its own large manufacturing facilities at Kingston upon Hull in the UK, and these
new products, compliment the already well specified existing range of Relief, Safety Relief, Reducing and Sustaining
valves supplied for over 100 years, globally, by Broady Flow Control.

Process Industries
The F7000/8000 and
F70PR pressure relief Valve
is a superior choice to protect
industrial process applications
because of the valves heavy
duty, low profile body design.
These valves have the ability to
flow high volumes of gas or liquid
and allows for a smaller valve
size than traditional relief valves
to get the the job done. Smaller
valves are not only less expensive
but also require smaller piping
and isolation valving, and
the associated connections,
both on the inlet and on
the outlet.
With a variety of standard
features on this range of valves
and additional extras on both
types including remote
pressure pickup, field test
connectors and unloading to
name a few, allow operators
greater versatility in the
operation and servicing of
this valve.
Series
F7000/8000
Todays industrial needs are being driven by requirements for high capacity, leak-tight safety relief
valves to reduce fugitive emissions and to save the customer product. The Flow Safe F7000/8000
Series Pilot Operated Safety relief Valves, with accurate operational characteristics, are engineered
to provide superior performance for todays industries.
F7000/8000 Design features include:
Large capacities through the overbored nozzle (F7000) and a variety of reduced orifice
selections (F8000), API standard orifices.
A variety of materials and end connections, 316SS trim standard on carbon steel main valves.
