DESIGN SCOPE
- Sizes 1D2 [25mm D 50mm]
to 8T10
[200mm T 250mm].
- Flange Classes ANSI
150 - ANSI 2500in
accordance with the limits of API
Standard 526. Set pressures from 3
psig [0.2 barg] to 6000 psig [414 barg].
- Temperatures from -400°F
to +1000°F
[-240°C to +538°C].
- Nineteen standard material
variations
for corrosive, toxic, or unique applications.
VALVE TYPES
- Model R is a conventional,
top guided,
single ring, full nozzle, unbalanced
pressure relief valve.
- Model RB is a balanced
bellows valve.
- Model RO is the model
R with an elastomer soft seat for improved
seat leakage protection.
- Model RBO is the model
RB with soft seat.
- Model RS is an open
yoke pressure relief valve with a plain lever
cap style for steam service.
- Model JR or JRB
is steam jacketed valve for applications involving
viscous or polymerizing fluids.
- Model NR or NRB
is the corresponding model meeting the requirements
of ASME III.
|
CAP STYLE
- Screwed cap.
- Plain lift lever
cap.
- Packed lift lever
- Bolted cap.
- Optional test gag
screws.
- Yoke type gag, Model
TYW-3 or TYW-
5 for plain lever caps.
- All R/RB models use
a threaded stem
and a drilled/tapped bonnet to permit
easy cap conversions in the field without
internal parts change out.
NACE MR-0175 (H2S)
SERVICE
- Three bill of material
levels.
- Level 1 for compliance
of wetted parts
in closed position.
- Sour gas trim for
CS valve in H2S environment.
- SS trim for SS valve
in H2S environment.
ADVANCED DESIGN
ALL MEDIA TRIM
- One trim design meets
the ASME
Code Sections VIII and III performance
criteria for steam, gas, vapor,
and liquid applications. No special liquid
trim is required, as is required in
competitive designs.
- The unique disc
holder and nozzle
ring design provides stable operation
on steam, gases, vapors, and liquids.
- Full capacity rating
at 10% overpressure.
- Conversion liquid
trim not necessary,
reducing spare parts.
Superior Alignment Internal
- Nozzle threads into
the valve body at
the body bowl. The thread alignment
is closer to the critical seating surface
and guiding surfaces.
|
SUPERIOR CORROSION RESISTANT
BELLOWS
- Standard Inconel
625 provides corrosion excellent resistance
and mechanical toughness.
- No stress corrosion
cracking in harsh
environments involving sour gas (H2S) or chlorides.
- The bellows threads
on the disc holder with a locknut and gasket.
- No welded attachment
permits lower cost replacement of the bellows.
ADVANCED DESIGN
TO REDUCE SPARE PARTS
- The standard disc
is reversible to provide a spare seating surface
on every part.
- Every O-ring soft
seated disc retains the standard metal seating
surface on the reverse side.
- The lower half of
the stem assembly, called the Point, is not
integral with the disc holder. This permits
lower cost of replacement for a critical guiding
component. Competitor designs incorporate
the guiding surface on the disc holder shaft.
- Springs within an
orifice and pressure class are designed with
a fixed inside diameter to eliminate custom
machined spring steps.
- Nozzle ring is common
to all pressure
ranges or seat designs within an orifice size,
reducing spare parts.
COST OF OWNERSHIP
- When considering
the total cost of continued operation, maintenance,
and spare parts, the Series R/RB is the leader.
It delivers exceptional performance through
state of the art design features, and provides
real value to its users. Backed by our extensive
repair and service organization network, customers
receive high quality, safety products which
continue our unequaled reputation as the leader
in pressure relief valve. Technology for Safety,
Environmental Protection, and Productivity
Improvement.
