Safety valve and rupture disc, as two common overpressure relief devices, often make buyers wonder which one to choose. For buyers, it is very important to understand the differences between the two, especially to recognize the unique advantages of rupture disc.
A safety valve is an automatic valve. When the pressure in the system exceeds the set value, the valve automatically opens and releases the pressure. After the pressure is reduced, it can be automatically closed and can be reused. The rupture disc is a disposable pressure relief device. When the pressure reaches a predetermined value, the rupture disc will break instantly, quickly releasing the pressure and preventing the equipment from being damaged due to overpressure. Because of the differences in structure and working principle, the two also have differences in performance and application scenarios.
In terms of response speed, rupture disc has a very big advantage. When the system pressure rises rapidly, the safety valve takes a certain amount of time to overcome the spring force and other resistance to achieve the opening action, and the rupture disc has no moving parts. When the pressure reaches the burst pressure, it can break almost instantly, and the discharge channel can be opened in a very short period of time. Discharge a large amount of medium in time, effectively preventing the pressure from rising further. For chemical reactors, liquefied gas storage tanks and other equipment that may cause severe reactions or explosions due to sudden overpressure, rapid response means that the danger can be controlled in a timely manner and accidents can be prevented.
From the point of view of sealing, rupture disc also performs well. During the long-term use of the safety valve, the sealing surface may experience minor leaks due to media corrosion, wear and other reasons. After the rupture disc is installed, the sealing performance can remain stable until the burst pressure is reached, and the system can be kept in a completely sealed state. This is for equipment that stores toxic, flammable, explosive and other dangerous media, it can reduce the safety risks and environmental pollution risks caused by media leakage.
In terms of maintenance costs, safety valves need to be checked, repaired and maintained regularly to ensure the accuracy and reliability of their actions, which increases the operating costs and maintenance workload of the enterprise. Rupture disc is a disposable device that does not require frequent maintenance after installation. It only needs to be replaced in time after blasting, which reduces maintenance costs and downtime and improves production efficiency.
For buyers, choosing rupture disc is not only to choose a reliable safety device, but also to choose a solution that can create greater value for the enterprise. Among the suppliers of rupture disc, our products stand out due to their excellent quality and performance.
