Some valves can be used with vacuum, some cannot. Those that can be will be catalogued with a minimum pressure of 29″Hg. Valves designated in our catalog with a pressure range starting at 0 psi or with a minimum pressure (e.g., 25, 30 or 45 psi) can not be used with vacuum. Valves that can be externally piloted may be used in vacuum applications when properly configured and supplied with external pressure that meets minimum pressure requirement.
