ITS’ Premium range of dead weight pressure relief valves
To prevent damage to the tank and help ensure safe operations, the Alfa Laval SB Pressure Relief Valve protects a pressurized tank during an overpressure event. It is designed for hygienic processes in the brewery, dairy, food and beverage industries. The valve can be integrated with a SCANDI BREW® tank top system.
Concept
The Pressure Relief Valve is used for minimizing the risk of damage to tanks due to liquid overfilling.
Working Principle
The Pressure Relief Valve is delivered with counter weight set and locked to suit customer requirements regarding opening pressure.
When pressure in the tank exceeds the preset opening value, the valve relieves the excess pressure.
Standard Design
The Pressure Relief Valve is available in two versions:
• Integrated in a SCANDI BREW® tank top system
• Mounted on its own welding flange
Compliance to EN 4126-1
Compliance to EN 764-7
Compliance Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU of the
European Community, Fluida Group II
The advantages of an integrated Pressure Relief Valve are lower initial costs, superior hygiene and smaller area required for the valve. The size and setting of the Pressure Relief Valve is based on the tank design data and process requirements.
