Spike Brewing Gas Manifold PRV

[Rob2010SS]

Anyone know if there's a PRV replacement option out there for these Gas Manifold Bundles from Spike Brewing?

We have a couple of these. The PRV on these are engraved that they release at 17 PSI. Ours typically start leaking air at 14-15 PSI. We're carbing a hefeweizen currently that I'd like to get the tank to 17PSI at 36F for ideal carbonation. I found a work around that I'm able to make it work but ultimately, I'd like to replace this PRV with one that maybe goes to 20 PSI.. Anyone know of such an item?

I did reach out to Spike directly to see if they had one or knew of where to get one but figured I'd check here also.

Disregard. I should have just looked on Amazon before posting. There's a ton of options there.

The spike ones likely use a 15 psi due to that being the working pressure that their conicals are rated for. So if you're going over that hopefully it's on a different fermenter.

Cheers!

Yeah, that's what they said too! I thought for some reason their conicals said to not exceed 30 PSI, but perhaps I'm thinking of the SSBT ones?? Not sure.... Either way, I'm seeing if I can accomplish this by getting the beer colder instead.

Went and checked. It's the SSBT tank that says not to exceed 30 PSI. The Spike tank does not say that. Dropped it to 15 on the nose and trying to cool it below 36F to achieve what I'm after. We'll see.

I think you'll be in the ballpark.

My conical (not a Spike) is rated for 15 PSI working pressure, not to exceed 30 PSI max pressure for what it is worth. My guess is that going over the working pressure will begin to fatigue the material.
