Function and Description
Highly Developed Pressure Relief Valve
The ER/V Type PROTEGO® valve is a highly developed emergency
pressure relief valve
Soupape de surpression
Valve designed to open and relieve excess pressure and to reclose and prevent the further flow of fluid after normal conditions have been restored.
with high flow capacity. It is primarily used as a
device
Appareil
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 emergency pressure relief for storage tanks, containers, silos, and process engineering equipment; it offers reliable protection against
overpressure
Surpression
Overpressure refers to an increase in pressure in a system or vessel above the normal operating pressure.
and prevents impermissible product vapor loss close to the
set pressure
Pression de réponse
Set pressure is the gauge pressure at the device inlet at which the relief device is set to start opening under service conditions.
. It is designed to relief particularly large amounts to prevent the

Récipient
Container or structural envelope in which materials are processed, treated or stored.
from rupturing in an emergency case.
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
Course
Lift is the actual travel of the valve pallet from the main valve out of the closed position.
. Continuous investments into 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 just 10% below the maximum allowable working pressure of the tank and still safely vent the required mass flow.
Advanced Manufacturing Technology
Due to the highly developed manufacturing technology, the
tank pressure
Pression de la cuve
Tank pressure is the pressure within a tank.
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 stainless steel with an inserted

Joint
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.

A housing is a solid shell, which surrounds a content, either protecting the content from external influences, or protecting the environment from the content.
design. After the excess pressure is relieved, the valve reseats and provides a tight seal again.

Dimensions
To select the nominal size Diamètre nominal The nominal size is an alphanumeric designation of size for components in a piping system, used for reference purposes, comprising the letters DN followed by a dimensionless integer that is indirectly related to the physical size of the bore or outside diameter of the connections, expessed in millimeters.

Flow Capacity Chart
The flow capacity charts have been determined with a calibrated and TÜV certified flow capacity test rig. Volume flow V in (m³/h) and CFH refer to the standard reference conditions of air ISO 6358 (20°C, 1bar). For conversion to other densities and temperatures refer to Sec. 1: “Technical Fundamentals”.
