AA 75x pressure release valve replacement
    #21589218 - 04/24/15 07:06 AM (9 years, 26 days ago)

My first post here. I've been reading the archives to find info on my current issue but have not seen anything matching and I've noticed how helpful and informative this group is!

I bought an old 75x online and the lever to toggle the pressure valve is missing. I ordered a replacement but the new part looks quite different.

is anyone familiar with this part or has swapped these out. I'm afraid they sent me the wrong thing. When I ordered the pic matched my 75x. I'm going to call the company but I want to have as much information as possible.

I'll try to attach pic of the new one.


Thanks so much!

Nope.  Right piece.  They sure have changed over the design of the toggle over the years.  The new one is better.  You'll see. 

Be very mindful and careful when screwing the new toggle valve into the lid assembly.  Pay close attention to whether or not the threads are prefectly straight.  AA's are made of cast aluminium, a very soft metal.  If the threads are not perfectly straight as you begin to tighten down with wrech they will easily strip on both the toggle valve and lid assembly.  Been there ~ done that.  Wrote the book, and bought the t-shirt.

do u have to use those metal tubes that go inside ur PC when u use those valves?  i think i have seen pictures where the metal tubing attaches to the relief valve (what u have pictured) under the AA lid, and goes down a ways, maybe a foot or so?
how much was that piece?

That's called the capilary tube.  All my electric sterilizers have one.  The capilary tubes have their own set of threads and recieving port on the underside of the lid assembly.  They are not connected to the stopcock per se, but they do act in conjunction with one another.

ok cool, wasn't sure what i was looking at when i saw the pictures of the sterilizers.

i've really been meaning to replace the weight valve with the toggle one in OP's post for my 941.  if it releases less steam/water thru the cycle, i think that will be helpful in heating up faster, and not risking running dry for longer bag cycles.
u think the toggle valves are universal, or the ones for stove tops and ones for electrics are different?

You would be exactly correct in your logic over the issue.  :super:

The stopcocks are universal.  My 941 has the stopcock conversion.  Just not the capilary tube.
