Description The Type 289P-6358 pilot-operated relief valve is used to provide protection from overpressuring a downstream system. This relief valve is suitable for service on natural gas, air, propane or any other operating medium not corrosive to the internal parts. Very little buildup over the set pressure is required for the main valve to go wide open for maximum relief capacity. Smooth opening action minimizes system pressure surges during emergency action.
Specifications Table 1 lists Type 289P-6358 specifications. Some of the specifications for a given relief valve as it comes from the factory appear on a control spring label attached to the Type 6358 pilot spring case and a nameplate attached to the Type 289P main valve spring case.

Principle of Operation Inlet pressure registers on the underside of the diaphragm of the main valve (figure 2) and enters the pilot through the control line tubing, where it registers on the underside of the pilot diaphragm. As long as the inlet pressure is lower than the set pressure, the pilot control spring pushes the pilot valve plug down, closing the exhaust. With the Type 6358 pilot, inlet pressure passes between the diaphragm assembly and the upper portion of the pilot valve plug and into the hollow stem to load the main valve above the diaphragm, keeping it closed. When the inlet pressure is at set pressure, the diaphragm assembly in the Type 6358 pilot moves upward enough to close off the inlet pressure path into the hollow stem; the exhaust port remains closed by the lower portion of the valve plug. Thus pressure is

unable to enter or leave the space above the main diaphragm. As the inlet pressure rises above set pressure, the diaphragm continues to move upward, opening the exhaust port and allowing pressure on the top of the main valve diaphragm to bleed to atmosphere or to the vent stack. The inlet pressure on the bottom of the main valve diaphragm then overcomes the main valve spring force, and the main valve opens, reducing the inlet pressure to set pressure. The pilot spring closes the exhaust, and inlet pressure loads the main valve diaphragm casing above and below the diaphragm, allowing the main valve spring to close the main valve. Note that, while the main valve is throttling, the Type 6358 pilot keeps the exhaust port closed. The pilot bleeds only when it repositions the main valve plug.

Installation WARNING Personal injury or system damage may result if this relief valve is installed where service conditions could exceed the limits given on the pilot control spring label or main valve nameplate. Installations should be adequately protected from physical damage. Overpressuring any portion of this equipment may cause equipment damage, leaks in the relief valve, or personal injury due to bursting of pressure-containing parts or explosion of accumulated gas. System operation within table 1 limitations does not eliminate the possibility of damage from external sources or from debris in the gas line. The relief valve should be inspected for damage regularly and after any overpressure condition.
Before installing, inspect the main valve and pilot for any damage and any foreign material. Make sure that the valve is oriented so that pipeline flow is in the same direction as the arrow on the side of the main valve body. Use a good grade of pipe compound on the pipe threads, but do not apply pipe compound to the internal body threads. A schematic of a typical installation arrangement is given in figure 2. A complete Type 289P-6358 unit requires a control line attached to the 1/4-inch NPT pilot control port D (figure 3). The control line should be connected from port D to the point where the pressure is to be controlled. Relief valve inlet piping should be as short, smooth and large as practical to minimize capacity loss due to pipe restriction effects. If the flowing medium is dirty, an appropriate filter in this control line is recommended, or a common filter or strainer can be used in the main or relief inlet line upstream from the control line.

Type 289P-6358 WARNING To avoid personal injury or equipment damage, the vent in the Type 289P-6358 spring cover must be oriented such that it is kept clear and protected. If venting gas will accumulate and be an explosion hazard under enclosed conditions such as in a pit or underground installations, remote venting to a safe area is necessary. A vent line or stack must be located to avoid venting gas near buildings, air intakes or any hazardous location. The line or stack openings must be protected against condensation and clogging. Install a 1/4-inch exhaust line into the 1/4-inch NPT pilot exhaust port A. This exhaust line may be vented either directly into the main valve outlet or separately to the atmosphere. In either case, a vent line or stack pipe diameter should be as large as practical with a minimum number of bends or other restrictions. Set pressure is defined as the pressure at which the main valve starts to discharge. The unit has been designed such that less than 3 psig (0.2 bar) buildup in the pilot set pressure will assure the main valve to be wide open, and will permit the relief valve to yield full open capacity. The set pressure of the unit is adjusted by changing the pilot control spring comression.
WARNING To avoid possible injury or equipment damage, never adjust the pilot control spring to produce a set pressure higher than the upper limit of the set pressure range for that particular spring. Each unit is factory set for the pressure setting specified on the order. If no set pressure is specified it will be factory set at approximately the mid range of the spring.
Adjustment If the relief valve begins exhausting, it is necessary to either lower main line system pressure or increase the set point pressure of the relief valve. If adjustment is necessary, use a pressure gauge to monitor the pressure. Loosen the locknut (figure 2) and turn the pilot adjusting screw clockwise to increase the set pressure or counterclockwise to decrease the set pressure. Then tighten the locknut to maintain the adjustment position.
Shutdown If the pilot and main lines are separate, slowly close the main block valve and the the pilot block valve. If they are not separate, slowly close the main block valve.
Maintenance Relief valve parts are subject to normal wear and must be inspected and replaced as necessary. Inspection and maintenance frequency depend upon severity of service conditions.
WARNING To avoid personal injury or equipment damage, isolate the relief valve from the pressure system and release all pressure from the pilot and main valve before performing maintenance operations.
Type 6358 Pilot Key numbers are referenced in figure 3 unless otherwise noted. The pilot may remain on the pipe nipple during maintenance procedures unless the body assembly (key 1) is replaced or removed for repairs.
Disassembly
Startup If the pilot and main lines are separate, slowly open the pilot block valve and then slowly open the main block valve. If they are not separate, slowly open the main block valve.
