Chemical reactor safety depends on the proper functioning of Reactor Safety Valves developed by Darshan Valve & Controls. In the case of an over pressure crisis, these valves are intended to open and relieve pressure, safeguarding the operators and the nearby area while avoiding damage to the reactor. As a leading exporter and supplier of Reactor Safety Valves, we are committed to providing the highest quality valves and exceptional outstanding customer service.
Safety valves are designed and manufactured with all necessary industry standards while using the latest technology and raw materials for fabrication in several sectors, including petrochemical, chemical processing, and other important ones, which may adopt our Reactor Safety Valves.
A Reactor Safety Valve (RSV) is a crucial component in nuclear reactors or other high-pressure systems, designed to protect the reactor from excessive pressure. It is a type of pressure relief valve that automatically opens to release pressure if the internal pressure exceeds a predefined limit, ensuring the safety and integrity of the reactor vessel and surrounding components.
The pressure at which the valve will begin to open to relieve excess pressure.
Typically set at a value slightly above the normal operating pressure to ensure safety without unnecessary operation.
For nuclear reactors, this is often in the range of 1000-3000 psi, depending on the system's design.
The amount of fluid the valve can discharge when fully open.
Expressed in terms of volume per unit of time (e.g., gallons per minute or cubic feet per second).
The flow capacity is chosen based on the worst-case pressure scenario to ensure rapid depressurization in case of an emergency.
The pressure at which the valve will close after relieving the excess pressure.
Typically lower than the set pressure to ensure that the valve fully reseats once the system returns to safe operating conditions.
The operational temperature range the valve can safely handle.
Reactor Safety Valves need to be capable of operating in extreme temperature conditions, which could range from -20°C to 500°C or higher, depending on the reactor's coolant system and materials.
