depad pilot valve Depad main valve vent actuator inlet filter Figure 2. Type ACE97 Pad-Depad Valve Parts Single Array Manifold (SAM): Provides sense line connection and main valve connection through a single tank nozzle. Purge Meters: Prevents corrosive tank vapors from damaging upstream equipment. Principle of Operation Pad (Figure 3) NPS 1 and 2 / DN 25 and 50 Pad Valves (Figure 3) When tank pressure decreases below the pad setpoint (due to pump out operations or thermal cooling), the actuator diaphragm moves downward pushing open the pad pilot. This creates flow from the pad loading...

Bulletin 74.3:ACE97 Table 1. Control Pressure Ranges Controlled Pressure RANGEs Pad Setpoint Depad Setpoint (Above Pad) SPRING FREE LENGTH SPRING WIRE DIAMETER 1. Two nested springs are used. System Sizing Tank Blanketing systems must be properly sized to have capacity to supply enough blanketing gas to maintain the setpoint pressure, yet large enough to vent excess gas without having tank vapor space pressure rise above allowable limits. Pad valves must not be so large that they cause overpressure. Sizing must also take into account applicable codes and standards as they apply to the...
