Safety Relief Valve RMG 846 3. Design and Operation The safety relief valve RMG 846 was designed to automatically relieve a gas stream of surplus pressure, as soon as the pressure prevailing in the system to be protected rises up to the pre-set response pressure limit. The closes again after the pressure in the line has fallen to the closing point. The RMG 846 is used as a leakage relief valve. It is installed downstream of the gas pressure regulator in order to prevent the shut-off valve (SSV) - in its function as a main safety device - from unintended release (i.e. the gas pressure regulator gives no tight shut-off on zero flow). The pressure prevailing in the system to be monitored is fed to the lower side of the diaphragm through the measuring impulse line, whereas the force of the setpoint spring maintains on the upper side of the diaphragm. If the pressure to be monitored rises up to the pre-set response pressure limit, the diaphragm and the diaphragm plate are pushed upwards from the valve seat, so that the gas can flow into the discharge line. If the pressure falls below the response pressure limit, the relief valve will close completely tight again as soon as the pressure is lowered to on the closing pressure level. The spring chamber is connected with the discharge line through a bore, so that the installation of a separate vent line is not necessary.
