Spring-loaded Relief Valve
A spring-loaded relief valve opens when pressure acting on its closure overcomes the spring load. It releases fluid to a designated discharge path and reseats as pressure falls.

Product & engineering
Understand the product.
A pressure Relief Valve is a safety device designed to protect a pressurized vessel or system during an overpressure event.
An overpressure event refers to any condition which would cause pressure in a vessel or system to increase beyond the specified design pressure or maximum allowable working pressure (MAWP).
The primary purpose of a pressure Relief Valve is protection of life and property by venting fluid from an overpressurized vessel.
The spring-loaded relief valve is a conventional pressure relief valve that is commonly used in liquid service valves. The valve opens proportionally as the pressure increases to overcome the spring pressure.
Set pressure, relieving capacity and back-pressure sensitivity are separate selection parameters. The protected equipment and credible overpressure case establish the required duty.
Outlet piping can affect performance and must carry the discharged medium appropriately. Contamination, spring condition and repeated opening influence continued reliability.
What turns activity into demand
Spring-loaded relief valves limit pressure by opening against a calibrated mechanical spring force.
The commercial boundary
Separate relief valves from pressure regulators, rupture discs and complete protection installations.
