Product catalog summary

Overview of Safety Relief Valve Series SRV
The document provides a detailed technical overview of the Safety Relief Valve (SRV) Series by PETROSYSTEM Srl, including its operation, design features, and maintenance guidelines.

Operation of Pressure Relief Valves
Pressure relief valves are force-balanced devices that open when inlet pressure exceeds a spring load, allowing fluid to escape and reducing system pressure. The valve's operation involves a sequence of pressure build-up and release across different chambers, leading to a rapid opening or 'pop'. Blow down, the difference between opening and reseating pressure, is adjustable via a blow down ring.

Design and Adjustments
The SRV features a preset adjusting ring to ensure proper lift and capacity without on-line testing. Blow down adjustments are made by moving the blow down ring, affecting reseating pressure. The valve's design emphasizes simplicity, with fewer parts for easier maintenance and cost savings.

Seat Tightness and Material Options
Precision machining and lapping ensure maximum seat tightness, crucial for high-temperature applications. Soft seat options are available for low-temperature fluids. The valve's disk holder allows interchangeability between soft and metal seats, reducing inventory needs.

Interchangeability and Customization
The SRV offers interchangeable cap and lever designs, including bolted, screwed, packed, or open lever options, adaptable to existing setups without altering valve settings. The design minimizes guiding surfaces to prevent sticking and galling in corrosive environments.

The valve then relieves the fluid and reduces the pressure in the system. Normally when the valve is closed (See Figure 1), the vessel pressure (P) is acting against the seating area (A) which is opposed by the spring force. As the pressure...
