SAFETY RELIEF VALVE

Type SRH1, SRH2, SRH3, SRH4 & SRH5


Size 13mm & 32mm (1/2 & 1-1/4) FOR R22, R134A, R404A, R717 AND OTHER COMMON REFRIGERANTS FEATURES ANSI/ASHRAE 15 compliant Excellent repeatability All Stainless Steel Internal Parts Unaffected by vibration PTFE Seat Pressure settings 150 to 400 psi
Description The Type SRH High Capacity Safety Relief Valves are designed and constructed to meet the requirements of Section VIII ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and ANSI/ASHRAE 15 Code requirements and bear the ASME Code Symbol (UV). Employing proven principles of design, these Safety Relief Valves are highly reliable and dependable. Precision machined moving parts of stainless steel, and a PTFE disc prevent sticking due to corrosion or cold welding and assure valve opening at the set pressure long after installation. They are not suitable for corrosive ambient atmospheres such as chlorine, etc. Purpose Safety Relief Valves should be used to protect each

refrigeration system pressure vessel that can be isolated by valves. In many localities state or municipal codes govern selection and installation of Relief Valves. Many are patterned after the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and the ANSI/ASHRAE 15 Safety Code for Mechanical Refrigeration. Where no compulsory code exists, installation of Relief Valves according to this ANSI/ ASHRAE Code is highly recommended. Application The Type SRH1 thru SRH5 valves are for use with Ammonia and Halocarbon refrigerants in non-corrosive environments. Pressure settings and capacities apply only when the valve is discharging to atmospheric pressure. Pressure Settings Codes require valve settings equal to or less than design working pressure of the vessel protected. The Type SRH Safety Relief Valves are available in six standard settings, from 150 psig to 400 psig in 50 lb. increments. Special settings between 150 psig to 400 psig in 25 lb. increments are also available. To retain the validity of the code symbols, pressure settings and capacity, these valves must be set and sealed at the factory. When required, valves can be returned to the factory for verification of setting, or readjustment to the original setting. No major repairs or reconditioning will be done. Contact factory for details.

Selection Data
The Type SRH Safety Relief Valve is intended to prevent the pressure of the vessel from rising more than 10% above the Design Working Pressure (DWP) of the vessel or the pressure setting of the relief device, whichever is the lower pressure. Whenever conditions permit, it is advisable to have the relief valve pressure setting (which must not exceed the design working pressure of the vessel) at least 25% higher than the normal operating pressure for the refrigerant used.

Pressure limiting devices, such as high pressure cutouts on positive displacement compressor systems, must stop the action of the pressure imposing element at no higher than 90% of the pressure setting for the pressure relief device. For non-positive displacement compressors, the pressure limiting device, such as a high pressure cut-out, may be set at the DWP of the high side; providing, the low side is protected by a properly sized pressure relief device set to relieve pressure at low side DWP and there are no stop valves in the system that isolate the high side from the low side. Discharge piping from relief devices must not exceed specified lengths indicated in ANSI/ASHRAE 15 with discharge to atmosphere. Per ANSI/ASHRAE 15 the minimum required discharge capacity of a relief device for each pressure vessel where vessel is valved off from refrigerating systems is determined as follows: C = FDL. Where D = outside diameter of vessel, ft.; L = Length of vessel, ft.; C = Capacity, lb/min air and F = Factor determined as follows:
