Selection Criteria

The 13900 Series pilot-operated safety relief valve is designed specifically for high capacity steam applications. This design can also be used effectively with other compressible fluids that exhibit similar characteristics to saturated steam at the same conditions. Some of the typical applications for the 13900 Series valve include boiler feed pump turbines, flash tanks, steam line, and dearators. Sizes range from 16 inch to 20 inch inlets with corresponding outlet sizes of 18 inches to 24 inches.

Key Features

The 13900 Series pilot-operated safety relief valve features a significantly smaller size and package compared to an equivalent spring-loaded relief valve designed for the same operating conditions. The pilot valve and main valve designs are simple constructions including a top-entry main valve design and a minimum number of parts for both the main valve and pilot valve. The pilot valve can also be tested and repaired in the field without disconnecting the main valve inlet and outlet lines.

Benefits

The 13900 Series valve's compact size offers significant advantages in field installation, handling, testing and maintenance. This also contributes to safer and easier service and maintenance resulting in lower overall cost of ownership. The 13900 Series valve is a simple, efficient and reliable direct-acting valve design with few components. It reduces the need for excessive inventory as well as maintenance time.
