    A relief valve DN25 on cooling water pipe from heat exchanger Schematic diagram of a conventional spring-loaded pressure relief valve. A relief valve or pressure relief valve (PRV) is a type of safety valve used to control or limit the pressure in a system; excessive pressure might otherwise build up and create a process upset, instrument or equipment failure, explosion, or fire.

  3. Restrictive flow orifice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Restrictive_flow_orifice

    A restrictive flow orifice (RFO) is a type of orifice plate.They are used to limit the potential danger, damage, or wastage of an uncontrolled flow from, for example, a compressed gas cylinder [1] [2] They are generally not limiting the flow during normal operation but if a fault or failure occurs causing uncontrolled flow the orifice will present a restriction, limiting the flow.

  4. Surge control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surge_control

    Gas-loaded relief valves are controlled by the nitrogen pressure loaded into the relief valve. If there is no control on the nitrogen pressure, then the nitrogen gas will expand and contract with the changing ambient temperature. As the nitrogen pressure drifts with the temperature so does the set point of the relief valve.

  5. Pilot-operated relief valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilot-operated_relief_valve

    At set pressure the valve snaps to full lift. This can be quite violent on large pipes with significant pressure. The pressure has to drop below the set pressure in order for the piston to reseat (see blowdown in relief valve article). Modulating The pilot is designed to open gradually, so that less of the system fluid is lost during each ...

    Freeze seal or Freeze plug: in which freezing and melting the fluid creates and removes a plug of frozen material acting as the valve; Gas pressure regulator regulates the flow and pressure of a gas; Heart valve: regulates blood flow through the heart in many organisms

  7. Rupture disc - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rupture_disc

    A rupture disc (burst) Pressure-effect acting at a rupture disc A rupture disc, also known as a pressure safety disc, burst disc, bursting disc, or burst diaphragm, is a non-reclosing pressure relief safety device that, in most uses, protects a pressure vessel, equipment or system from overpressurization or potentially damaging vacuum conditions.
