[PSUBS-MAILIST] automatic valve

[Alan via Personal_Submersibles]

Hank,
I bought a few of them from a local marine chandlery that specialised on
parts for larger vessels. I remember them being quite cheap for a stainless
steel item. I think around N.Z. 5- .
For that image I did an image search on stainless steel mesh valve. The
screen shot shows various names they are marketed under.
This link is the first I came across, but you may find a better, cheaper item.

I can remember that the threads on the filter & the valve weren't compatible
So I just forced the filter in. Possibly I heated the plastic thread first.

>> Hi All, I am looking for a safety back up on my solenoid vent valve.  I envision an upside down foot valve.  I want a device that blocks the air flow from the MBT once submerged.   This is in case the solenoid valve gets debris in the seat and fails to seat.  I only need one auto blocker because I have two MBT's.  I can make buoyancy adjustments with the second tank.  A float that closes a valve sort of thing
