Kelso Technologies Inc. recently obtained an order for JS75 SRV pressure relief valves from rolling stock maintenance service provider Rescar Industries Inc. — Kelso’s second order since the company began selling the valves in August. Kelso obtained its first order from an undisclosed U.S. chemical producer and tank-car fleet operator.

The valve is designed to prevent product contamination and back pressure, eliminate the need for a safety valve nozzle and be retrofitted to existing tank cars. Smaller and lighter compared with other pressure-relief valves, the JS75 SRV features an unobstructed opening and flow aperture. Kelso continues to market the valve to North American oil and gas, and chemical shippers and tank-car lessors/owners though a recently formed U.S. subsidiary.

“It is becoming very clear that Kelso’s pressure relief valve technology is gaining market/industry acceptance at a far greater pace than we originally envisioned,” said Kelso President and Chief Executive Officer John Carswell in a prepared statement.
