I came across this valve in my research and wanted to see if anyone else had considered using one of these for a emergency manual pressure release? If so, what was your experience?

We've never used this type of valve before because we have a bunch of high pressure ball valves that we put on our pump so we can open it with a simple flick of the wrist. That valve does look like it would be a good alternative and it has a built in pressure relief.
