Combined Pressure and Vacuum Relief Valve
The PV/EL Type PROTEGO® valve is a highly developed combined pressure and vacuum relief valve Soupape de surpression et dépression A pressure and vacuum relief valve is a pressure equalization valve for impermissible pressure and vacuum in a closed system. . It is primarily used as a device Appareil A device is a pipe component that influences the media flow by opening, closing, or partially shutting off the flow channel or by dividing or mixing the media flow. for relieving pressure Pression d'ouverture The relieving pressure is the vacuum or overpressure at which the valve reaches the lift required for the mass flow to be discharged. and vacuum Dépression Vacuum is the pressure in an enclosed space that is lower than the ambient pressure. in tanks, containers, and process engineering equipment. The valve offers reliable protection against unallowable overpressure Surpression Overpressure refers to an increase in pressure in a system or vessel above the normal operating pressure. and underpressure. Product loss close to the set pressure Pression de réponse Set pressure is the gauge pressure at the device inlet at which the relief device is set to start opening under service conditions. is avoided and unallowable product entry is prevented.
Full Lift Technology
The device will start to open as soon as the set pressure is reached and only requires 10% overpressure to full lift Course Lift is the actual travel of the valve pallet from the main valve out of the closed position. . Continuous investments in and a commitment to research and development have allowed PROTEGO® to develop a low pressure valve which has the same opening characteristic as a high pressure safety relief valve. This “Full Lift Type” technology allows the valve to be set at just 10% below the maximum allowable working pressure or vacuum (MAWP or MAWV) of the tank and still safely vent the required mass flow. The opening characteristic is the same for pressure and vacuum relief.
Advanced Manufacturing Technology
Due to the highly developed manufacturing technology, the tank pressure Pression de la cuve Tank pressure is the pressure within a tank. is maintained up to the set pressure with a tightness that is far superior to the conventional standard. This feature is achieved by valve seats made of high quality stainless steel and with precisely lapped valve pallets (1) or with an air cushion seal Joint A seal prevents or limits unwanted transfer of product from one container to another. Seal is used as superordinate term for all types of sealing elements. (2) in conjunction with high quality FEP diaphragm Membrane A diaphragm is a thin layer of material, which has a large surface area. . The valve pallets are also available with a PTFE seal to prevent the valve pallet Clapet Valve pallet is the generic term for the assembly that rests on the valve seat. from sticking when sticky products are used, and they enable the use of corrosive substances. After the overpressure is released or the vacuum is balanced, the valve re-seats and provides a tight seal. The optimized fluid dynamic design of the valve body and valve pallet is a result of many years of research, resulting in stable operation of the valve pallet, optimized performance, and reduced product losses.
Dimensiones
To select the nominal size Diamètre nominal The nominal size is an alphanumeric designation of size for components in a piping system, used for reference purposes, comprising the letters DN followed by a dimensionless integer that is indirectly related to the physical size of the bore or outside diameter of the connections, expessed in millimeters.

Modelo y especificación
The valve pallets are weight-loaded. At set pressures greate than 60 mbar (24.1 inch W.C.), an elongated construction is used.There are two different designs:
Additional special devices available upon request.
Any combination of vacuum and pressure levels can be set for the valve. When the difference between the pressure and vacuum exceeds 150 mbar / 60.2 inch W.C., special valve pallets are used.
