What is the function of a breather valve?

2020-09-17View Original

Thread Content

The workshop’s batching system consists of several horizontal tanks, whose vapor phases are connected to each other and ultimately lead to a water seal tank. These tanks are usually maintained at a pressure of 3–4 kPa. A breathing valve is installed on the top of one of the CPL tanks. What is the function of this breathing valve?

When the stomach is empty, one needs to eat; when it’s full, one needs to defecate.

During normal breathing, both exhalation and inhalation help maintain a stable dynamic pressure within the device

Feed can cause overpressure; a decrease in ambient pressure can also lead to overpressure, and an increase in ambient temperature may likewise result in overpressure. These are the factors related to overpressure; Conversely, discharging material can cause negative pressure; an increase in ambient pressure can also lead to negative pressure, as can a decrease in ambient temperature. A breathing valve is a special component that releases pressure when the equipment is under high pressure and draws in air when it is under negative pressure. A breathing valve is equivalent to a safety valve that can provide both positive pressure protection and negative pressure protection. The calculation of the required venting capacity for the breathing valve can refer to the relevant specifications in SH3007.

Vent the gas inside the tank to prevent overpressure
