This standard specifies the terms, design and performance requirements, tests, determination of discharge capacity, calculation of equivalent capacity, marking and sealing, quality assurance system, as well as the general requirements of installation, adjustment, maintenance and repair for the safety valves.
This standard is applicable to the various safety valves having a flow diameter greater than or equal to 8mm and a set pressure greater than or equal to 0.1 MPa. No limitation is placed on the applicable temperature of the safety valves.
