Re: Quick Exhaust Valves - Illegal !?!?

Forgive a ridiculous question, please --

What type of device, generally, is that which is described as a "pressure vent plug" in Figure 4-15 in the manual? (http://frc-manual.usfirst.org/viewItem/181#4.10)

This is what we all use to vent the system of pressure and does not appear to be among those items listed in R77-F.

What am I missing?

Derp -- I'm missing part B.

So, then, the question becomes -- what makes this valve functionally different from a ball valve / quick release valve?
