Vacuum collapse causes many accidents involving equipment with low pressure ratings such as atmospheric storage tanks and bins. This paper presents methods to establish the appropriate relief capacities and specify pressure relief devices to protect atmospheric storage tanks and other similar equipment against this hazard.
Emergency pressure relief valves are required on most storage tanks. The large opening is designed to provide quick relief if a sudden upset condition causes abnormal pressure inside the tank. These valve are the last defense to prevent a storage tank from rupturing.
Please note that the brand names of pressure relief devices covered (Anderson Greenwood, Crosby, Whessoe and Varec) are of Emerson manufacture. A specific valve brand is selected, according to pressure range, temperature range, valve size, industry application and other applicable factors.
In this video and blog, we highlight two key devices needed for pressure compensation: Pressure/vacuum Relief Valves, or PVRVs, are used during normal operation to allow storage tanks to compensate for the increase of pressure when the tank is filling as well as the vacuum condition when the tank is emptying.
