A question for the rules experts... is it allowable to use this type of safety valve also as a dump valve? It's got a manual function to bleed air off the system by pulling the ring - so if I added a toggle to the safety valve I could use it for both dump and pressure relief functions... :?:

There is no reason why the reliefvalve can't be the dump valve. As long the complete system is rendered pressureless.

thanks a lot guys, one has purchased said valve just waiting for delivery now

bought most of the pneumatic parts off that guy - he's nice and helpful. That valve should be fine - it worked for me, got it in action a couple of times when I had the regulator fully open!

Thanks Mario, you confirmed my reasoning...

Just a note, the valve needs to be left open when not in the arena. Most of the relief valves that can be manually operated have a self closing mechanism.

As Kane remarks, just make sure you can keep the dump open when in the pits.

Yes of course - It must remain open otherwise is useless. True most relief/safety valves have a normally closed manual override function, but its easy to adapt them to stay open without modifying the valve itself.
