Safety valves dependent of back pressure, spring-loaded.
SVA Safety Relief Valves
AWP’s SVA safety valves are designed for installation as relief valves in the refrigerant cycles of industrial refrigeration systems. By default safety valves are meant for protecting refrigeration systems and their components from excess pressure (see also EN 378 part 2). They comply with the technical regulations of the German Technical Control Board (TÜV) and with AD2000 regulations. Once the set response pressure is reached AWP safety valves begin to open. They open within a 10 % pressure increase until the designed limit of the lift is reached. When the pressure drops again they start closing once the set response pressure is reached. They are completely closed within a pressure drop of 10 % below the set response pressure. These valves work dependently of back pressure.
