[khaidz86]

Hi,

I'm a newcomers in this field.I would like to know if somebody can tell me on how to set the safety valve for the new boiler,20MT. My new mill will start on steam test tomorrow and also to set the safety valve.If someone can tell me,it will be much appreciated.Thanks.

You don't give much information.
I should say setpressure is design press. of the boiler.

For a large boiler with multiple SRVs, the set pressures will not all be the design pressure.

I just want to know its steps before we do safety valve setting.

My boiler information:

Design Code: BS1113-1998
Max. Permissible W.P: 2.414 N/mm2
H.T Pressure: 3.621 N/mm2
Max. Continuous Rating: 20,000kg/hr

The simple answer, if using a single valve and no superheater, is that the set pressure of the valve is equal to the design pressure of the boiler, sized to pass 100% of the boiler capacity. If using multiple valves, or a superheater, then the requirements are a little different.

Thx to all.

I have done on Hydrostatic test at 33bar and also set safety valve at 22bar. Now, i'm just waiting to do steam test before start wet run for my new mill tomorrow.
