Review on Adjustable Pressure Relief Control Devices by Chris Palmer

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Inconsistent, weird and annoying to use.

As others have pointed out, the gauge means literally nothing. I had a 12psi keg installed and put it on top of the keg. I reduced the pressure relief from 100psi and at 50psi it started to bleed. I could understand if the sensor was off by 10-20%. But set 50psi and bleed at actual 12psi? Well it's a joke. Why a thermometer at all? You might as well stick a sticker on it that says LESS -> MORE. That's really all you get. He's also not particularly responsive. The sensor is not actually open or closed. It's closed, but then open, kind of open, a little bit open, a little bit open, a little bit open, almost closed and closed. So there's this constant leaking and leaking. It also doesn't reset to a constant level. I could set the vessel at 15 psi, it would bleed to 12 psi and sometimes close, maybe 13 psi, maybe 11 psi. I don't know what the options are, but it's a bit of a hassle to work with. Thing.

Pros
  • Silicone O-ring seals to 10% of set pressure.
Cons
  • High price.
