Combined Pressure and Vacuum Relief Valve
The PV/EL Type PROTEGO® valve is a highly developed combined pressure and vacuum relief valve. It is primarily used as a device for relieving pressure and vacuum in tanks, containers, and process engineering equipment. The valve offers reliable protection against unallowable overpressure and underpressure. Product loss close to the set pressure 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. 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 Maximal erlaubter Betriebsdruck (MAWP) Maximaler zulässiger Überdruck im oberen Bereich eines kompletten Behälters in normaler Betriebsstellung bei der genannten übereinstimmenden Temperatur, die für diesen Druck spezifiziert ist. 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 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 (2) in conjunction with high quality FEP diaphragm. The valve pallets are also available with a PTFE seal to prevent the valve pallet 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.

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.
