Regarding the installation of safety valves

Can a safety valve be installed horizontally?
Reply #22016-02-17
I don’t think it’s possible; after all, if the spring of a spring-type safety valve is placed horizontally, won’t it not function properly?

Take a look at the API521 installation section. I’ve never seen it installed horizontally.

SEPD 0204-2001 2.1.2 Safety valves on equipment and pipelines must be installed vertically upward; installing them in any other manner will affect their proper functioning.
