Highly Developed Pressure Relief Valve
The Deflagration-Proof and Endurance-Burning-Proof P/EB Type PROTEGO® valve is a highly developed pressure relief valve with an integrated Flame Arrester Unit. It is primarily used as a device for flame transmission-proof out-breathing on tanks, containers, and process equipment. The valve offers reliable protection against overpressure and prevents product losses almost up to the set pressure, while at the same time protecting against atmospheric deflagration as well as endurance burning. The PROTEGO® Flame Arrester Unit is designed to achieve minimum pressure losses with maximum safety. The PROTEGO® P/EB valve is available for substances in explosion group IIA (NEC group D MESG > 0.90 mm).
10%-Technology
When the set pressure is reached, the valve starts to open and reaches full lift within 10% overpressure. This unique 10% technology enables a set pressure that is only 10% below the maximum allowable working pressure ( MAWP Maximal erlaubter Betriebsdruck (MAWP) Maximaler zulässiger Überdruck im oberen Bereich eines kompletten Behälters in normaler Betriebsstellung bei der genannten übereinstimmenden Temperatur, die für diesen Druck spezifiziert ist. ) of the tank. After years of development, this typical opening characteristic of a safety relief valve is now also available for the low pressure range. The tank pressure is maintained up to the set pressure with a tightness that is far above the normal standards due to our state-of-the-art manufacturing technology.
Custom Materials
This feature isensured by the valve seats made of high quality stainless steel and with individually lapped valve pallets (1), or with an air cushion seal (2), in conjunction with a high quality FEP diaphragm. The valve pallets are also available with a PTFE seal to prevent them from sticking when sticky substances are used and to enable the use in corrosive fluids. After the overpressure is released, the valve re-seats and provides a tight seal.
Main Component – PROTEGO® Flame Arrester Unit
If the set pressure is exceeded, explosive gas/product vapor/air mixtures are released into the atmosphere. If this mixture ignites, the integrated PROTEGO® Flame Arrester Unit (3) prevents flame transmission into the tank. If additional mixture continues to flow in and stabilized burning occurs, the integrated Flame Arrester Unit prevents flashback as a result of endurance burning. The valve is protected and also fulfils its function under these severe conditions. The spring-loaded weather hood opens as soon as the melting element (4) melts.
Many Individual Certifications
The valve can be used at an operating temperature of up to +60°C / 140°F and meets the requirements of European Tank Design Standard EN 14015 (Appendix L) and ISO 28300 (API 2000). EU conformity according to the currently valid ATEX directive. Approvals according to other national/international regulations on request.
