Corner safety valve, for saturated steam and compressed air, G 1/2", DN 10, 3.0 bar, gunmetal

A steam boiler must not exceed its permissible working pressure, not even when the control system fails. This corner safety valve opens at a fixed set pressure of 3.0 bar and releases the excess pressure to atmosphere. The connection is G 1/2" with a nominal size of DN 10. The discharge capacity is 64 m³/h of compressed air. A gunmetal body, a spring steel spring and a seal of EPDM cover the temperature range of -40 to +150 °C.

Advantages

• Discharge capacity of 64 m³/h of compressed air at DN 10, sufficient for the matching receiver or compressor.
• Fixed set pressure of 3.0 bar, so the protection is unambiguous without any adjustment on site.
• Gunmetal body, spring steel spring and a seal of EPDM, matched to steam, compressed air and other non-toxic, non-flammable gases.
• Temperature range of -40 to +150 °C, which covers outdoor installation and hot media alike.
• Corner design with 26 mm face-to-centre length and 70 mm overall height, so the valve adds little to a vessel wall.

Applications

Pressure vessels in plant engineering with nominal size DN 10. Protection of headers with a discharge capacity of 64 m³/h. Test rigs and experimental setups limited to 3.0 bar. Installation in tight spaces where the corner design with 26 mm face-to-centre length saves room.

Standards and conformity

The valve is type tested and carries the component identification TÜV-SV...-312.10.D/G.0,28 CE0036 3 bar. It is supplied with a fixed setting only, so the set pressure of 3.0 bar cannot be altered. A setting certificate to 3.1 is available on request. The version is approved for saturated steam and for steam boilers to TRD group 1.
