TAV5 vent valves have an 0.5 mm diameter orifice and are suitable for venting small
vacuum systems of < 5 litres. TAV6 vent valves have an 1.0 mm diameter orifice and are
suitable for venting bigger vacuum systems.
The vent valves are pre-wired to Vent Option 1 and that the default is set to fully vent at
50% (option 0). The solenoid valve is fitted in place of the manual valve, or alternatively
can be fitted with an adaptor (supplied with the valve) and be used with any suitable
NW10 flanged port on the vacuum system. The vent port adaptor allows the vent port or
the purge port to be used with any suitable NW10 fitting.

14.7 PRX purge restrictor
The PRX10 is a modified DN10NW centring ring that filters the purge gas and restricts its
flow rate to the recommended flow of 25 sccm. A vent port adaptor must be fitted to
the purge port in order to connect a purge restrictor to the pump.
