When the breather valve operates, do its valve stem and valve disc rise and fall together?

When the breather valve operates, do its valve stem and valve disc rise and fall together? A valve disc is already heavy enough; add a valve stem to it, and how is it possible for it to operate at such low pressures? Such low operating pressures aren’t even sufficient to overcome the weight of the valve disc and the valve stem itself

Everything has been calculated! :When purchasing a breathing valve, it’s essential to provide details such as the medium, operating pressure, and leakage rate; the manufacturer needs to use these parameters to select the appropriate model and carry out the design and manufacturing process.

It should have been considered during the design – if the pressure and weight don’t match, could it be that the parameters were entered incorrectly?

F=PS establishes the relationship between pressure and weight; the valve stem and valve disc are both pushed up by the medium once they reach the set point

Integrated, moves together; the weight is calculated based on pressure

A breather valve is installed on the top of the tank. Due to the phenomena of \"large breathing\" and \"small breathing\" that occur with oil, this valve serves to release excess pressure inside the tank. The weight of the valve disc and valve stem is not significant enough to cause an increase in pressure inside the storage tank. A properly designed breather valve can open or close in response to changes in pressure, and its working principle relies on the difference between its own weight and the pressure inside the tank to determine whether it opens or closes. My ability to express myself is limited; I’m not sure if you understand

The valve stem and valve disc of a breathing valve operate together; during the design and selection process, it is necessary to choose them based on the pressure conditions at the site, and the data sheet for the breathing valve can be used as a reference.

Hello, of course, the valve stem and the valve disc of a breather valve rise and fall together, as they are integrated as one unit! The minimum set pressure for a breather valve is generally 200 PA, which is necessary to overcome the weight of the valve disc and valve stem. We are a manufacturer of breather valves; if you have any questions, feel free to call us for consultation! Mr. Zhu: 13912008028; the same number for WeChat as well
