Product description
AirCraft Safety Valve SG-COMP06-48
At a Glance: Threaded pressure relief (safety) valve with pull-ring for manual testing and emergency pressure release.
The AirCraft SG-COMP06-48 Safety Valve is the “last line of defence” on a compressor system. When pressure rises beyond the safe limit, a safety valve is designed to open and vent excess pressure to help protect the tank, fittings, and nearby components. It’s not just a spare part—it’s a critical safety component. If your existing valve is leaking, sticking, corroded, or has been tampered with, replacing it with the correct AirCraft part helps keep your compressor operating safely and within its intended pressure range. This style includes a pull-ring that allows manual testing (where appropriate) and controlled release.
Safety valves are designed to relieve overpressure conditions automatically. Always match the Cat No. SG-COMP06-48 and ensure the pressure setting suits the application. For safety-critical parts, correct fitment and rating are non-negotiable.
Features

Extra Info
Extra Information
- Confirm rating and compatibility: Ensure SG-COMP06-48 matches your compressor model and required relief pressure setting.
- Check thread size: Verify the threaded connection against your existing valve before installation.
- Do not modify: Never plug, clamp, or adjust a safety valve unless the design explicitly allows it.
- Replace if leaking: If a safety valve vents or leaks continuously, it may be worn or contaminated and should be replaced.
Pro Tip
- When replacing a safety valve, also inspect the pressure switch settings and gauge accuracy. A misreading gauge or faulty pressure switch can make the safety valve “look bad” when it’s actually doing its job.
Safety
Safety
- Isolate power and fully depressurise the system before removing or installing a safety valve.
- Wear eye protection and keep your face/hands away from fittings when releasing pressure.
- Do not install a valve with an incorrect pressure rating—use the correct specification for the compressor system.
- Do not paint, block, clamp, or tamper with the valve—this can create a serious hazard.
- After installation, pressurise gradually and check for leaks at the thread and confirm normal operation.
