SAFETY VALVE VSR100
The safety valve is an automatic device having an inlet and a discharge, the purpose of which is to prevent that a plant and / or equipment, containing liquids or gases / vapors, can be subjected to dangerous pressure.
Upon reaching the set pressure, the valve opens and, by means of the discharge into the atmosphere, prevents the pressure to reach the dangerous limits for the generator and for the components present in the plant itself.
The TGE’s valves are safety accessories as defined in Article 2 of Directive 2014/68 / EU.
Benefits
Safety valves are the last organs to protect the equipment and the people who work in contact with them, if they are less than all the other slides of prepared control.
The difference between the two pressures, the opening one and the closing one, generally has a value between 4% and 7% of the aperture value. The pressure value of reclosing can be adjusted in the calibration phase and will be identified as the value of the blow-down.
Maintenance
The safety valves must be checked periodically to ensure they are functioning according to the specifications, you will verify in particular that the shutter and nozzle surfaces are integrated, in the case will be adjusted to restore any imperfect seals.
Applications
The safety valves are installed on tanks and gas transport lines.
