Product detailed description
The VHP18/160 UNLOADER VALVE 160 BAR – HIGH-FLOW INDUSTRIAL BYPASS VALVE FOR URBAN CLEANING & FIRE-FIGHTING is a specialized pressure control valve from Mecline, engineered to support very high flow rates in medium-pressure applications. With a maximum pressure rating of 160 bar and an outstanding flow capacity of up to 160 litres per minute, this valve is ideal for systems requiring large-volume water delivery.
Optimized for urban cleaning trucks, fire-fighting vehicles, and other mobile high-flow systems, the VHP18/160 offers stable and efficient pressure regulation. Its design ensures safe operation by redirecting excess pressure through a bypass circuit, protecting the pump and connected equipment from overpressure damage.
Built for integration into mobile or stationary washing systems, the VHP18/160 is a reliable solution for applications where volume matters as much as pressure. This includes municipal water jetting, sewer flushing, street cleaning, and rapid-response fire suppression setups.
With its durable construction and flow-focused performance, the Mecline VHP18/160 unloader valve is the trusted choice for municipal, emergency, and utility services requiring robust control of high-volume water delivery under consistent pressure.
Tecomec: components for cleaning, spraying and outdoor equipment
Tecomec develops components and accessories across cleaning, agriculture, forestry and gardening. Its portfolio therefore reaches beyond pressure washing: it includes products for spraying machinery, chainsaw maintenance and brushcutters as well as professional cleaning equipment. This broader focus connects fluid handling with the maintenance and operation of outdoor machinery.
Product range and applications
The Mecline range serves pressure washers, industrial washing equipment and car wash applications. Geoline focuses on agricultural spraying and related liquid handling tasks. Other Tecomec product groups support forestry and gardening equipment, allowing the brand to address several distinct technical applications.
Selection and system integration
Choose parts by their specific product family and intended machine. For cleaning and spraying components, verify working pressure, flow, temperature, connections and liquid compatibility. Replacement parts should be matched to the original model and technical documentation, because components serving different applications are not automatically interchangeable.
