Pressure relief valves are critical safety components designed to protect piping systems, pumps, tanks, and pressure vessels from excessive pressure. The valve automatically opens when the system pressure exceeds a preset limit, safely releasing excess pressure and preventing damage to equipment, pipelines, and process components.
These valves operate using a spring-loaded mechanism, which ensures reliable and consistent pressure regulation without the need for external power. Once the pressure is reduced to a safe level, the valve automatically reseats, allowing the system to continue normal operation. The simple and robust design makes pressure relief valves suitable for continuous and demanding process conditions.
Pressure relief valves are widely used in industrial, utility, and hygienic process systems, where maintaining safe operating pressure is essential for equipment protection and process reliability.
