PRV (Pressure Relief Valve)
A Pressure Relief Valve (PRV) is a safety device used in fluid systems to protect pipes, vessels, and other components from excessive pressure. When the system pressure exceeds a set limit, the PRV automatically opens to release excess pressure, preventing potential damage or failure. It ensures the system operates within safe pressure limits.
FEATURES:
-
Pressure Setting: The valve is calibrated to open at a specific pressure limit, designed to prevent system failure.
-
Automatic Operation: When the system pressure exceeds the preset value, the valve automatically opens to release excess pressure.
-
Spring Mechanism: Most PRVs operate using a spring-loaded mechanism that keeps the valve closed until the system pressure surpasses the set limit.
-
Sealing Capability: The valve ensures tight sealing when closed to prevent pressure loss during normal operations.
-
Material Construction: PRVs are made of durable materials like stainless steel, ensuring resistance to corrosion and wear under high-pressure conditions.
-
Adjustable or Fixed Setpoints: Some PRVs offer adjustable settings, while others have a fixed relief pressure setting, making them adaptable to different system requirements.
