PCP Tank Safety Valve

I need a 6Bar safety Valve for my brothers Nova Vista.

Looks to be a 3/8" UNF thread. Here she is.

3/8” Safety Valve | Air Compressor Parts | Airpower

Not exactly the same thing, but functionally possibly suitable? Depends on where on the rifle it fits.

Thanks. Will check available space.

The terminology you are looking for is a burst disc or a burst valve.

Are you sure about the 6 bar rating? It sounds very low.

Aha, so clearly its not the same system than my Cz200 S pcp.

Does anybody know what pressure gets used to launch the pellet?

I have a Nova Vista. It has a 300 bar tank. I think the 6k is 6000psi, which translates to over 400 bar.

Please check again.

At what point in the rifle's process is the safety?
