There are several types of pressure regulating valves available, each designed for specific applications and operating conditions. Some common types include pilot-operated valves, diaphragm-operated valves, and direct-acting valves. Pilot-operated valves use a separate control line to adjust the pressure, while diaphragm-operated valves use a flexible membrane to control the opening of the valve. Direct-acting valves, on the other hand, operate without the need for external control lines or mechanisms.
One of the key features of safety valves is their ability to operate reliably under various thermal and pressure conditions
. They are often manufactured from robust materials that can withstand extreme environments, including high temperatures and corrosive substances. This durability is essential, as safety valves must function correctly at all times, even during unexpected events such as equipment malfunctions or rapid pressure changes.
