Overspeed Shutdown Valves

Wyndham-Page automatic overspeed shutdown valves are designed for situations where flammable gas or vapour may enter the atmosphere in the area in which a diesel engine is operating.

Should such flammable material be drawn into the engine intake this may result in uncontrolled engine overspeeding and a situation in which shut down of the normal diesel fuel supply may fail to stop the engine. Under these circumstances, a rapid shut down of the engine is required by immediate closure of the engine intake thereby greatly reducing the potential for major damage, which could possibly include the ignition of the flammable material in the surrounding atmosphere.
