Abstract
A corrosion protector particularly suitable for use with pressurized gas relief valve systems using conduits in which moisture may enter. The valve corrosion protector comprises a spacer located between the bolted flanges of components of the gas exhaust system, and a tubular neck attached to the spacer extends toward the conduit system exit. The neck is of a diameter less than the inner diameter of the associated conduit and flange whereby moisture upon the inner walls of the conduit system is collected between the conduit and the neck, and a bleed passage adjacent the spacer bleeds the moisture from the conduit system preventing such moisture from contacting the valve and causing corrosion.
