Air compressor safety valve，Air Pressure Relief Valve，safety valve

‌ air compressor safety valve ‌

It is a device used to protect the safety of the air compressor system, the main role is to automatically open when the system pressure exceeds the set value, release excess pressure, and prevent the equipment from being damaged or safety accidents due to overpressure. There are many types of air compressor safety valve, of which ‌ spring type safety valve ‌ is the most common one, relying on the force of the spring to work, with simple structure and rapid response ‌

Type and structure

Air compressor safety valves are mainly divided into spring type and lever type two categories. Spring-type safety valve relies on the force of the spring to work, suitable for a variety of media, especially flammable, explosive or toxic media should choose a closed design. The lever safety valve relies on the force of the lever weight to work, but due to its large size, its use is relatively limited ‌

‌ The application of the air compressor safety valve ‌ is mainly reflected in its safety protection function. When the pressure in the compressed air system exceeds the set safety valve pressure, the safety valve will automatically open and release part of the compressed air to prevent the system pressure from continuing to rise, so as to protect the system from overload or explosion and other dangerous accidents ‌

This mechanism is essential to ensure the safe operation of air compressor systems, and in many countries and regions there are mandatory installation and inspection requirements ‌

Working principle

Air compressor safety valve belongs to the automatic valve class, which usually uses the elastic pressure change and displacement of the diaphragm spring to adjust the gas pressure. When the pressure in the system exceeds the set value, the safety valve will start, open the exhaust port to release pressure, and keep for a certain time (generally 0.1-0.2 seconds), so as to protect the equipment ‌

Under normal working conditions, the safety valve should be closed; Enable using ‌ only in the event of a failure
