01 · Technical overview

Functional engineering application

The 4MATIC 4M-SALV Pneumatic Fail-Safe Air Lock-Up Safety Valve (MPN: 4M-SALV) is built for continuous-duty industrial piping, holding pressure, temperature, and cycling loads in factory installations across Kenya and East Africa.

Key technical advantages
Instantly locks pneumatic actuator in last operating position upon air line pressure drop
Protects continuous process plants against sudden valve slamming, water hammer, and thermal trips
Wide adjustable cut-off trip pressure range from 1.4 to 7.0 bar covers standard plant air systems
Low reset differential hysteresis prevents chattering and hunting near the trip threshold
Direct 1/4" NPT/BSP ports enable simple in-line installation between positioner and actuator
Rugged epoxy-coated aluminium body withstands corrosive industrial plant atmospheres
Operates purely pneumatically with zero electrical power requirement
Target equipment applications
Boiler house modulating fuel gas and fuel oil control valve fail-safe protectionChemical reactor temperature modulating valves requiring fail-in-place safetyWater treatment chemical dosing control valves preventing chemical overdose during air outagesPower generation turbine bypass and steam temperature regulating loopsOil and gas pipeline automated ESD valve diagnostic loops

04 · Frequently asked

Common questions on this part

A standard spring-return actuator will immediately slam closed when air pressure is lost. While this is desirable for emergency shutoff, in modulating control loops (such as boiler feedwater or furnace temperature), slamming closed causes catastrophic process shocks. The 4M-SALV traps air inside the actuator, holding the valve at its last position so operators can maintain controlled production or perform an orderly shutdown.

The 4M-SALV is designed for single-acting actuators with one air chamber. For double-acting actuators with two opposing air chambers, 4MATIC produces the dual-acting model 4M-DALV which locks both ports simultaneously.

STARNEX supplies 4MATIC pneumatic accessories on order with factory dispatch. Official KRA E-TIMS tax invoices, datasheets, and setting instructions are supplied with all orders.
