DUTIES OF THE SAFETY VALVE
The The Safety Valve protects the system against pressure rises that may occur as a result of increasing energy or decreasing supply in the pressurized environment where it is installed.
The main purpose of the Safety Valve is to ensure the safety of the system, as well as to ensure that this process is carried out at as little cost as possible.
YKS SAFETY VALVES prevent accidents and potential hazards that may occur in piping systems, pressure tanks and boilers.
THINGS TO BE CONSIDERED IN SELECTING A SAFETY VALVE
System Operating Pressure
Opening Pressure of Safety Valve
Fluid Type
The required Discharge Capacity
Fluid Temperature
Back Pressure on the Outlet of the Valve
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR SAFETY VALVES
Safety Valve should never be connected vertically.
The selection should be made according to the capacity.You can use the related table for this.
Every two years, technical service or pressure tank specialists must have maintenance done.
Constructive measures should be taken by considering the reaction forces.
The Safety Valve is subject to the “Regulation on Health and Safety Conditions in the Use of Work Equipment” and “Pressure Vessels and Installation Items” in accordance with Law No. 6331. Periodic checks of the safety valve mechanism, which acts as a safety in pressure-operated installations, must be carried out by authorized and approved institutions, and Compliance reports should be prepared.
THE USER’S RESPONSIBILITIES FOR SAFETY VALVE
During the periodical controls made by the Ministry of Labor and Industry, companies that do not perform the necessary controls for the operation of the Safety Valve are subject to serious penalties within the scope of “Negligence that threatens the health of workers”. In the inspections carried out within this framework, in case of detection of situations that threaten human health
