Function and Description

Combined Pressure and Vacuum Relief Valve

The Deflagration-Proof and Endurance-Burning-Proof VD-SV-EB Type PROTEGO® valve is a highly developed combined pressure/vacuum relief valve Válvula de compensación de presión Pressure/vacuum relief valve is an umbrella term that includes pressure or vacuum relief valve as well as pressure and vacuum relief valve. for high flow capacities with the integrated Flame Arrester Apagallamas Device fitted to the opening of an enclosure, or to the connecting pipe work of a system of enclosures, and whose intended function is to allow flow but prevent the transmission of a flame. PROTEGO® EB. It is primarily used as a device Bastidor 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 flame transmission-proof Flame transmission-proof Characteristic of a device to avoid flashback. in-breathing and out-breathing in tanks, containers, and process equipment Equipment Machines, appliances, fixed or mobile devices, control parts and accessories, and warning and prevention systems, whether separate or combined, intended for the generation, transfer, storage, measurement, control, and conversion of energy, and for the processing of materials, which have their own potential source of ignition and may cause an explosion. . The valve offers reliable protection against over pressure and vacuum Vacío Vacuum is the pressure in an enclosed space that is lower than the ambient pressure. , prevents out-breathing of product Product Includes equipment, protective systems, devices, components and combinations of these. vapor and in-breathing of air almost up to the set pressure Presión de reacción Set pressure is the gauge pressure at the device inlet at which the relief device is set to start opening under service conditions. , and protects against atmospheric deflagration Deflagration Explosion propagating at subsonic velocity (EN 1127-1:1997). and endurance burning Endurance burning Stabilized burning for an unlimited time. if stabilized burning Stabilized burning Steady burning of a flame stabilized at, or close to the flame arrester element. occurs.

10%-Technology

The PROTEGO® Flame Arrester Unit is designed to achieve minimum pressure drop with maximum safety. The Deflagration-Proof and Endurance-Burning-Proof PROTEGO® VD-SV-EB device is available for substances from explosion Explosion Abrupt oxidation or decomposition reaction producing an increase in temperature, pressure, or in both simultaneously. group IIA (NEC group D MESG > 0.9 mm). When the set pressure is reached, the valve starts to open and reaches full lift Carrera Lift is the actual travel of the valve pallet from the main valve out of the closed position. within 10% overpressure Presión excesiva Overpressure refers to an increase in pressure in a system or vessel above the normal operating pressure. . This unique 10% technology enables a set pressure that is only 10% below the maximum allowable working pressure (MAWP) of the tank.

Advanced Manufacturing Technology

After years of development, this typical opening characteristic of a safety relief valve is now also available for the low pressure range. The tank pressure Presión del tanque Tank pressure is the pressure within a tank. is maintained up to the set pressure with a tightness that is above the normal standards due to our state-of-the-art manufacturing technology. This feature is ensured by valve seats made of high quality stainless steel and with individually lapped valve pallets (1), or with an air cushion seal Sello 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 a high quality FEP diaphragm Membrana 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 them from sticking when sticky substances are used and to enable the use in corrosive fluids. After the overpressure is released, the valve re-seats and provides a tight seal.

Main Component – PROTEGO® Flame Arrester Unit

Many Individual Certifications
