excellence of Italian engineering Field adjustable PRESSURE RELIEF VALVES

excellence of Italian engineering OUR MISSION: We started in 1960 as instrumentation manufacturers and we have increasingly specialized in high quality valves. Italian know-how and production, combined with qualified European suppliers, make Sami the excellence of Italian engineering. 3

WHAT: Relief valves are devices which protect the system from overpressure by draining the fluid when the pressure exceeds a set value. HOW: The valve OPENS when the pressure exceeds a set value and CLOSES when it falls below. Normal state: Force of pressure on stem force of pressure of spring = CLOSED Overpressure: Force of pressure of system force of pressure of spring = stem lifts and valve OPENS The set pressure is easily adjusted by the customer by turning a screw on the top of the valve Please note: Sami s pressure relief valves are unidirectional, are not to be plugged or plumbed in series and must have an independent exhaust to atmosphere. WHERE: Relief valves are used: in systems or containers where it s important to protect the equipment from overpressure; with high or low temperature fluids; to control overpressure caused by heat expansion of a fluid; where the low drain rate in high pressure systems isn t a critical factor; where a bubble tight seal is requested. 4 WHERE NOT: NOT to be used: below 1.000 psi (69 bar); in systems where the relief valves must have a capacity rating at a given pressure rise: our product is designed to open gradually when the pressure increases; in systems with ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code or 97/23/EC standards: our relief valves do not comply with ASME or PED standards; where back pressure during drain may occur; with corrosive fluids or liquid nitrogen, which, in the expansion phase, could generate cryogenic temperature gas, damaging the valve.

MAIN FEATURES: Field adjustable set pressure can be set in factory and readjusted in the plant, if needed Long life thanks to soft seat and strong coil springs High accuracy designed to control minor overpressure Fast response thanks to a simple structure, with few mechanical components Easy to use all you need is a screw to adjust the set pressure Easy maintenance with few spare parts and easy-to-reach seat Bubble tight thanks to soft seat based on a tilt angle CODING SYSTEM: SERIES R10 RELIEF VALVE 10.000 psi R20 RELIEF VALVE 20.000 psi TYPE M01 SCREW ADJUSTABLE RELIEF VALVE - SOFT SEAL - ORIFICE 0,07 SIZE T01 1/4 C&T T11 1/4 NPT T02 3/8" C&T T12 3/8 NPT T03 9/16 C&T MATERIALS A Aisi 316 (standard) R10 M01 T01 A Other materials available upon request. 5

The table above shows the set pressure which can be reached by compressing the internal spring at a given height h. The maximum set pressure can be reached at approximately 25% of the total spring length. The values are to be regarded as an indication and refer to working conditions at room temperature (-29 C + 38 C / -20 F + 100 F). A tolerance value of ±10% must be considered. H 6
