KITO® pressure relief valves
KITO® pressure relief valves are used to prevent or minimize the loss of gas/vapours allowing econimical savings and reducing environmental pollution. KITO® pressure relief valves are used wherever pressure needs to be relieved in closed systems storing gases or vapours.
Pressure rises inseide liquid storage tanks and eventually must be relieved by a pressure relief valve to avoid tank collapse during operational filling or due to thermal effects caused by a hot sunny day, for instance. Also, possible malfunctions of inert gas valves can cause pressure in the storage tank to rise suddenly.
KITO® DS/KG-BEH-6-IIB3-…
- As venting device for installation on storage tanks incorporating an explosion and endurance burning flame arrester element and a PRV to allow for the passage of excess pressure but prevent or minimize the loss of gas/vapours depending on valve adjustment.
- Approved for all materials of the explosion group IIB3 with a maximum experimental safe gap (MESG) ≥ 0.65 mm and an maximum operating temperature of 60 °C.
- Usually mounted on the top of the tank in conjunction with a vacuum relief valve (see KITO® VS/KS-IIB3-… (type sheet D 11 N)).
- An explosion proof condensate drain is also available for this model at extra cost.
