ABSTRACT:
An ammonia excess flow valve has a seal ring (24) slidably positioned around at least two retainer vertical members (22B). A disk (26) has a disk central opening (26A) and a disk pin opening (26B) therethrough. The disk (26) is positioned adjacent to and below a retainer (22). A conduit (28) sealably connected to the disk (26) over the disk pin opening (26B) extends upwardly therefrom. The conduit (28) functions to permit the ammonia excess flow valve (10) to be reset by equalizing pressures on both sides of the disk (26) once excess flow that trips the ammonia excess flow valve (10) is remedied, minimizing creation of vapor.
