Set pressure of the safety valve

2017-04-12View Original

Thread Content

Safety valves have a set pressure and a back pressure. What do constant pressure and back pressure mean?
Reply #22017-04-12
Back pressure is the pressure behind the valve; when venting, it is atmospheric pressure
Reply #32017-04-12
Fixed pressure refers to the maximum allowable pressure difference. Safety valves are generally connected to atmospheric pressure; when pressed, the pressure is that of the atmosphere.

Constant pressure refers to the starting pressure, while back pressure refers to the pressure behind the valve.
