The safety valve spring is broken; please offer some guidance on how to analyze this issue

At a normal operating pressure of 0.2 MPa, the safety valve indicated a leakage issue; upon inspection, it was found that the spring had broken. Could someone please advise on the cause of this spring failure? Medium: Naphtha.

Overpressure, or substandard quality?

Another possible explanation is that the area froze over, causing someone to jump as a result. This fracture is due to normal wear and tear; it should be replaced when damaged, with no other factors involved. Prevent the problem with freezing ice; for the other issues, there’s little that can be done to prevent them, no specific measures available.

There is no overpressure; this safety valve has been in use for about four years

The temperature isn’t yet at the freezing point; it’s mainly because the manager wants an analysis of the root causes, so I’m looking to gather everyone’s insights

It can only be attributed to a quality issue; it was damaged due to corrosive factors.

This safety valve has been in use for about four years, so there can be no talk of quality issues

The spring is defective; it should be considered a quality issue. But after four years of use, it’s still okay. So, just replace the spring or the new safety valve. There’s no need to worry too much about it.

Check the crack for any defects or corrosion
