Function and Description
Highly Developed Pressure Relief Valve
The Deflagration Deflagration Explosion propagating at subsonic velocity. -Proof and Endurance-Burning-Proof D-SVL-EB Type PROTEGO® valve is a highly developed pressure relief valve Pressure-relief valve Valve designed to open and relieve excess pressure and to reclose and prevent the further flow of fluid after normal conditions have been restored. for large flows with an integrated Flame Arrester Flame arrester 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 Device 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. out-breathing on 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 excess pressure Pressure (gauge pressure) Pressure for which the value is equal to the algebraic difference between the absolute pressure and the atmospheric pressure. and prevents product Product Includes equipment, protective systems, devices, components and combinations of these. losses almost up to the set pressure Set pressure Set pressure is the gauge pressure at the device inlet at which the relief device is set to start opening under service conditions. ; while at the same time protecting against atmospheric deflagration 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 PROTEGO® flame arrester unit The PROTEGO® flame arrester unit is the main component of a flame arrester. It prevents flame propagation. is designed to achieve minimum pressure drop with maximum safety. PROTEGO® D-SVL-EB valves are available for substances for substances of 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 Lift Lift is the actual travel of the valve pallet from the main valve out of the closed position. within 10% overpressure Overpressure Overpressure refers to an increase in pressure in a system or vessel above the normal operating pressure. . This unique 10% technology 10% technology PROTEGO® pressure and vacuum relief valves with full-lift pallet release the flow within 10% overpressure from the set pressure to a fully opened valve (full-lift). enables a set pressure that is only 10% below the maximum allowable working pressure ( MAWP Maximum allowable working pressure (MAWP) Maximum gauge pressure permissible at the top of a completed vessel in its normal operating position at the designated coincident temperature specified for that pressure. ) of the tank. After years of development, this typical opening characteristic of a safety relief valve is now also available for the low pressure range.
Advanced Manufacturing Technology
The tank pressure Tank pressure Tank pressure is the pressure within a tank. is maintained up to the set pressure with a tightness that is above the conventional standards due to our state-of-the-art manufacturing technology. This feature is ensured by the valve seats made of high quality stainless steel and with individually lapped valve pallets (1), or with an air cushion seal Seal 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 Diaphragm 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 pallets 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
If the set pressure is exceeded, explosive gas/product vapor/air mixtures are released into the atmosphere. If this mixture ignites, the integrated Flame Arrester PROTEGO® EB (3) prevents flame transmission into the tank. If additional mixture continues to flow and stabilized burning occurs, the integrated Flame Arrester Unit prevents flashback Flashback Phenomenon occurring in a flammable mixture of air and gas when the local velocity of the combustible mixture becomes less than the flame velocity, causing the flame to travel back to the point of mixture. as a result of endurance burning. The valve is protected and also fulfils its function under these severe conditions.

Many Individual Certifications
The valve can be used up to an operating temperature Operating temperature Temperature reached when the equipment is operating under design conditions. of up to +60°C / 140°F and meets the requirements of European Tank Design Standard EN 14015 – Appendix L and ISO 28300 (API 2000). EU conformity according to the currently valid ATEX directive. Approvals according to other national/international regulations on request.
