Safety valve dedicated for chlorine gas

2011-11-08View Original

Thread Content

Our company used to install ordinary safety valves on its chlorine storage tanks (including buffer tanks), and it wasn’t long before leaks were detected in those safety valves. At first, we thought there was a problem with the procurement (that the quality of the safety valves was poor), so we purchased another batch, only to find that leaks occurred again after a short time. Then we replace it every 2 months. Not long ago, safety experts came to our company for an inspection and identified a non-compliance issue: a dedicated safety valve for chlorine was not installed on the chlorine storage tank. Oh my God, there are actually special safety valves for chlorine! They say they’re much better than ordinary safety valves, but they’re also quite expensive. But as long as it works well, there’s no problem; after all, chlorine is extremely dangerous, so it’s essential to take proper safety measures.

Where was the valve used later? Is it a bellows seal? Could you please send me a message within the platform?

Yeah, what kind was used later on?

For chlorine, a special safety valve designed for chlorine must be used; ordinary valves will not work and tend to break down frequently. There is a safety valve from Dalian Guoli that some customers use regularly, and it has been in use for several years now

An explosion-proof diaphragm made of nickel alloy or Hastelloy is installed in front of the valve.:):):@
