There are several types of valves on the market, including safety valves, also known as PSV valves, which are devices that relieve pressure from the systems in which they are installed.
…
Continuing our special series, in this article, we will discuss some design details of discharge piping, both for safety valves protecting boilers and relief valves safeguarding pressure vessels and pipelines.
… 
Continuing with the special series of articles on safety and relief valves, authored by Artur Cardozo Mathias, an expert in the field, we delve into details and characteristics of these valves and their applications.
… 
This article is the first part of a special series on safety relief valves, where Artur Cardozo Mathias, an expert on the subject, explains more about some characteristics of this category of valves.
… 
Safety valves are primarily responsible for keeping industrial operations safe, as they are the last line of defense in the system. Therefore, it is essential that their design, installation, and maintenance are in perfect condition to ensure safe operation.
… 
When it comes to industrial operations, especially those involving fluid work, safety concerns (already high) are always heightened, with a primary goal: to prevent accidents of various dimensions.
… 
Some minor repairs can be carried out in an industrial plant without stopping the process. In other cases, it's possible to halt a specific stage of the operation to perform maintenance while the rest continues to function. However, at times, it's necessary to completely interrupt the plant's operation. This is what we refer to as a Plant Turnaround.
… 
Safety valves (PSV) and relief valves (PRV) have specific engineering and characteristics.
Understanding the properties of each allows you to save time and money by knowing when and where to use them. Want to know how? We'll explain below.
