- Background
In natural gas regulating stations, pipeline pressure can fluctuate significantly due to seasonal changes and peak demand periods. These rapid pressure spikes pose risks of system damage or even explosions if not promptly relieved. Therefore, high-sensitivity safety relief valves are essential components for overpressure protection. - Challenges
Slow response of pressure regulators leads to pressure buildup
Inferior relief valves may suffer from valve core sticking or poor reseating
Lack of redundancy means failure of the primary valve can cause major safety risks - Solution: Stainless Steel Spring-Loaded Safety Valve
Precise set pressure with ±5% tolerance and rapid response
Constructed from 316 stainless steel for corrosion and high-temperature resistance
Dual-valve redundancy design available: primary relief + backup protection - Case Study
At a natural gas regulating station, a ¼” NPT spring-loaded safety valve was installed. With only one monthly visual inspection required, the solution significantly reduced manual monitoring. No overpressure incidents were recorded in over two years of operation.
