Overview
A pressure release valve protects flowline and pumping equipment by opening when inlet pressure exceeds the specified set pressure. The valve directs relieved flow through its outlet and automatically reseats after pressure returns below the configured threshold.
- Opens automatically at the specified set pressure
- Relieves excess pressure through a dedicated outlet path
- Self-resetting design reseats after the overpressure condition clears
- Set pressure and discharge routing must match the application
- Final pressure class, materials, and connections confirmed per configuration
