Alfa Laval SB Pressure Relief Valve

Product Description

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.
