Pilot Operated Relief Valves
Cross Pilot Operated Relief Valves
Pilot Operated Relief Valves from Cross Company Process Solutions function with the use of tank pressure acting on the actuator diaphragm which transfers a force to the pallet to hold the valve closed. They consist of a main valve, which is the actual pressure relief, and a self-actuated pilot that controls the opening and closing of the main valve in response to developing or receding overpressure. They are very good for controlling evaporation losses and helping to meet environmental regulations.
Why Use A Pilot Operated Valve
There are many reasons why a pilot operated valve may be the right valve for your process application. Some of the reasons to use a pilot operated valve include
- Premium seat tightness to set pressure
- Allows you to meet stringent environmental laws like the EPA’s method 21 for
- 500 PPM VOC’s or less
- Reduce evaporation losses
- Increase efficiency
The Importance of Pilot-Operated Relief Valves
Pilot operated relief valves are necessary to effectively manage pressurized systems across numerous industries. This can include oil and gas, chemical manufacturing, power generation, and many others. Pilot operated valves are designed to relieve excess pressure in a controlled, safe manner. This ensures the protection of any personnel or equipment.
Through safe venting of pressure, pilot operated relief valves can help prevent catastrophic failure (and subsequent maintenance-related downtime), significant equipment damage, and safety hazards for human operators.
When you partner with Cross Company for your pilot operated relief valves, you know you’re getting quality. Through our partnerships with industry leaders, we’re able to offer a comprehensive selection of pilot operated relief valves. Meaning we have the right process equipment for your application.
