ISI Certification (BIS) for
Liquefied Petroleum Gas (Lpg) Containers for Automotive Use IS 15100:2018 in India

BIS CERTIFICATION OF MULTIFUNCTION VALVE ASSEMBLY FOR PERMANENTLY FIXED LIQUEFIED PETROLEUM GAS (LPG) CONTAINERS FOR AUTOMOTIVE USE IS 15100:2018

Multi-Function Valves (MFV) combine the functions of pressure relief valves (PRV) and pressure loading valves (PLV). Pressure relief valves protect the pump and the outlet-side installations against excessive pressure. In contrast, the pressure loading valves maintain a certain counter-pressure for the dosing pump. In addition, multi-function valves allow deaeration of the pump and emptying of the outlet line for maintenance. A multi-function valve is mounted directly on the pump outlet side. The top connection is for the outlet line, the side connection leads the relief liquid back into the tank.

Multifunction Valve Assembly for Permanently Fixed Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) Containers for Automotive Use is advantageous as -

• Durable and rugged design
• Provides maximum flexibility in both operations and maintainance
