    Change set pressure, question

    avalveman is correct. Changing set pressure of valves is not outside the realm or normal duties for PSV repair shops. As noted, the spring would have to be swapped out for the correct one (spring range) as defined by the spring charts. Keep in mind the reduced capacity impact and ensure that...

    PRV Sizing for Use during Hydrotest of Piping Systems

    I have seen that program being adopted at a site. They have a set of PSVs that vary in set pressure depending on the pipe class. The driving force in the sizing is the capacity of the hydrotest machine (which is normally very small) and the idea that it continues pressuring up. Given the normal...
