Relief Valves For ASME Storage Tanks


Designed for use as a primary relief valve in ASME storage tanks.
Low profile design reduces chance of external damage or sheering.
The 7534G has 3” MNPT external threads for attachment of vent stacks. The accessory 7534-20 pipeaway
adapter has a break-off groove to prevent damage to the relief valve from external sheer on the vent stack.

outside the container connection, so the valve must be protected from physical damage. The accessory pipeaway adapters

Relief Valves

DuoPort Pressure Relief Manifolds


Designed especially for use as a primary relief device on smaller stationary storage
containers with 2” NPT threaded couplings. These manifolds allow servicing or re-
placement of either of the two relief valves without evacuating the container or loss of
service. The operating lever selectively closes off the entrance port to the relief valve
being removed while the remaining valve provides protection for the container and its
contents. The rating of each manifold is based on actual flow through the manifold and a
single pressure relief valve, taking friction loss into account. It is not merely the rating of
the relief valve alone.

MultiPort Pressure Relief Manifolds


Designed especially for use as a primary relief device on large stationary pressurized
storage containers with flanged openings. These manifolds incorporate an additional
relief valve, not included in the flow rating, allowing for servicing or replacement of
any one of the relief valves without evacuating the container. The handwheel on the
manifold selectively closes off the entrance port of the relief valve being removed
while the remaining relief valves provide protection for the container and its contents.
All manifold flow ratings are based on flow through the relief valves after one has
been removed for service or replacement.

Relief Valve Sizing for Common Large ASME Tanks


The relief valves used for protection on ASME storage containers have a minimum required flow rate determined by the
outside surface area of the container. The following chart lists the common large ASME storage containers and their associated
required relief flow rates. When selecting relief valves for a particular tank, make sure the flow rate on the relief valve equals
or exceeds the rquired flow from the chart.
