This type of relief valve provides a smart alternative in applications where bursting discs are currently installed or being considered. | |||
Buckling Pin technology offers an accurate and reliable means of calibrating pressure relief devices. BS&B has developed the | |||
BPRV™ Buckling Pin Relief Valve | |||
for in-line pressure or vacuum relief offering quick and simple external resetting. The BPRV is suitable for both gas and liquid applications, and provides a full relief opening at a pre-determined set pressure. | |||
Advantages | |||
Valve opens in milliseconds | |||
Quick return to operation after over pressure situation | |||
Changing the pin is quick and simple | |||
Pin is outside the process, and therefore unaffected by it | |||
This means no debris is left in the pipe, as with bursting discs | |||
No annual testing is required | |||
Maximum Operating Pressure is 95% of the set pressure | |||
Set pressure is much more accurate than bursting discs | |||
There is zero leakage to set point | |||
There is no limit on the size of the valve | |||
