ABSTRACT:
An outlet valve comprising a unitary housing is described. An inlet end of the housing has a flange for attachment of the valve to the discharge conduit of a tote tank, and an outlet end of the housing has a flange for attachment of a dry disconnect coupler for delivery of product from the tank. A bridge member provides a sliding journal for the stem of a poppet assembly which is held in a closed position by a spring acting against the bridge. The bridge and poppet assembly can be removed for cleaning by removal of a snap ring which holds the bridge member in place in a bore in the housing. Cleaning is further facilitated by the opening of the groove into the bore being relatively wide. Clearance for mounting the dry disconnect coupler to the outlet end of the housing is provided by angling the inlet end of the housing relative to the remainder of the valve.
