Pressure and Vacuum Relief Valve with Flange Connection for a Vent Line
The PROTEGO® In-Line Valve DV/ZW is a state-of-the-art Pressure and Vacuum Relief Valve Pressure and vacuum relief valve A pressure and vacuum relief valve is a pressure equalization valve for impermissible pressure and vacuum in a closed system. with separate flange connections for use in a vent line. Typically, the valve is installed in the in-breathing and out-breathing lines of tanks, vessels, and process equipment Equipment Machines, appliances, fixed or mobile devices, control parts and accessories, and warning and prevention systems, whether separate or combined, intended for the generation, transfer, storage, measurement, control, and conversion of energy, and for the processing of materials, which have their own potential source of ignition and may cause an explosion. to protect against unallowable overpressure Overpressure Overpressure refers to an increase in pressure in a system or vessel above the normal operating pressure. and underpressure. The valve prevents emission losses almost up to the set pressure Set pressure Set pressure is the gauge pressure at the device inlet at which the relief device is set to start opening under service conditions. and prevents air intake almost up to set vacuum Set vacuum Internal negative gauge pressure at which a vacuum valve first opens. . It is designed in a way that if the set pressure is exceeded, the vapors are released into an exhaust pipe (e.g., Vent Header). If the set vacuum is exceeded, atmospheric air is pulled into the system. For structural reasons, the vacuum Vacuum Vacuum is the pressure in an enclosed space that is lower than the ambient pressure. valve pallet Valve pallet Valve pallet is the generic term for the assembly that rests on the valve seat. is one size smaller than the pressure Pressure (gauge pressure) Pressure for which the value is equal to the algebraic difference between the absolute pressure and the atmospheric pressure. valve pallet.
Full Lift Technology
The device Device A device is a pipe component that influences the media flow by opening, closing, or partially shutting off the flow channel or by dividing or mixing the media flow. will start to open as soon as the set pressure is reached and only requires 10% overpressure to full lift Lift Lift is the actual travel of the valve pallet from the main valve out of the closed position. . Continuous investments in and a commitment to research and development have allowed PROTEGO® to develop a low pressure valve which has the same opening characteristic as a high pressure safety relief valve. This “Full Lift Type” technology allows the valve to be set at just 10% below the maximum allowable working pressure or vacuum ( MAWP Maximum allowable working pressure (MAWP) Maximum gauge pressure permissible at the top of a completed vessel in its normal operating position at the designated coincident temperature specified for that pressure. or MAWV) of the tank and still safely vent the required mass flow. The opening characteristic of the pressure and vacuum side is basically the same. However, the in-breathing will start as soon as the differential pressure between the atmospheric pressure and the tank is greater than the set pressure of the vacuum valve pallet. Due to our highly developed manufacturing technology, the tank pressure Tank pressure Tank pressure is the pressure within a tank. is maintained up to set pressure with a tightness that is far above the conventional standard.
Optimized Valve Design for Maximum Performance
This feature is ensured by valve seats made of high quality stainless steel and with individually lapped valve pallets (1), or with an air cushion seal Seal A seal prevents or limits unwanted transfer of product from one container to another. Seal is used as superordinate term for all types of sealing elements. (2), in conjunction with high quality FEP diaphragm Diaphragm A diaphragm is a thin layer of material, which has a large surface area. . The valve pallets are also available with a PTFE seal to prevent the valve pallets from sticking when sticky products are used and to enable the use of corrosive fluids. After the over pressure is released or the vacuum is balanced, the valve re-seats and provides a tight seal. The optimized fluid dynamic design of the valve body and valve pallet is a result of many years of research, resulting in stable operation of the valve pallet, optimized performance, and reduced product Product Includes equipment, protective systems, devices, components and combinations of these. losses.
