A Brass safety valve is a type of industrial equipment designed for the protection of pressure tanks, air systems, and other applications. It has two main functions: it prevents overpressurization and releases pressure. The valve can be installed on a water tank, boiler, or other piping system.
Safety valves are made of high quality metals and engineering suited to the application. They offer accurate performance in all circumstances. This makes them ideal for the defense, food processing, and chemical industries.
Depending on the requirements of the application, safety valves are available in a number of configurations. These include screwed, semi-nozzle, and full-nozzle styles. The springs used in these valves can be adjusted using a spring adjuster.
In some types of safety valves, the disc is the only part of the valve that is exposed to the process fluid. When the pressure force exceeds the spring force, the valve opens. However, when the pressure force is less than the spring force, the fluid cannot move the disc.
In some other types of safety valves, the disc has a spring that holds it against a nozzle seat. As soon as the spring compresses, the force on the disc increases. Therefore, the disc will lift off the seat.
A Brass safety valve has a spring-loaded poppet. This allows the valve to open automatically when pressure exceeds its rated value. It is also a good choice for fire sprinkler systems.
The design of a brass safety valve depends on its application. Typically, they are used in steam turbine kettles and steam processing equipment.
