How do bellows valves work?

Bellow is similar to a hollow flexible hose. It functions like a vertical diaphragm (parallel instead of perpendicular to valve stem). It seals with the valve stem at one end, and seals with the valve body at the other end. Therefore, it allows a small relative move between valve stem and body, but prevents fluid from leaking across bellow surface. The move pushes seat or stem tip for valve to close or open. --SteveX

What do you think are the functions of the pyloric valve and the cardiac valve in a pig?

The cardiac sphincter is located at the top of the stomach and controls the direction of food passing through the esophagus so that no food will re enter the esophagus.

What is a TIW valve?

iT IS A VALVE USED IN OIL AND GAS DRILLING RIGS TO CLOSE IN THE DRILL STRING TO PREVENT A BLOW OUT T.I.W. is really a brand name which stands for: Texas Iron Works. The Valves on drilling rigs in the drillstring are often refered to as TIW Valve these are really Upper Kelly and Lower Kelly. More often the Safety Valve which is used on Work-over and Completions of well and/or work done through the Christmas Tree is also refered to as a TIW type valve. They all are used for pressure control.

Pressure safety valve-are the valve who are designed such that it can control the pressure , like in the water blowers etc,and Temperature safety valve are those who are used to regulate the temperature like, in water boilers.


Which safety valve should be set to discharge at lower pressure drum safety valve or super heater safety vlave?

The Superheater safety valve must be the lowest set safety valve on any boiler, in order that flow through the superheater is maintained.If the drum valve were set lower the flow through the superheater would be disrupted on an overpressure.

Difference between Thermal relief valve and safety valve?

A thermal relief valve is a liquid-only relief due to expansion of a liquid with increased temperature.A safety valve relieves pressure due to a gas.It should be noted that "safety valve" is a general term which could refer to Pressure Relief Valves (PRVs) or Pressure Safety Valves (PSVs), terms which are used synonymously in some industries (such as the petroleum industry) to refer to all relief devices in general.

What are the important considerations for maintaining a hot water safety valve?

Important considerations for maintaining a hot water safety valve include regular inspection for leaks or damage, testing the valve's functionality periodically, ensuring proper installation and positioning, and following manufacturer's guidelines for maintenance and replacement. Regular maintenance helps ensure the valve functions correctly in case of a hot water system failure, preventing potential hazards such as scalding or pressure buildup.


What is blow down pressure of safety valve?

the blowback or blowdown of the safety valve is at least 2 psi and for pressures over 100 psig is 2% of the popping pressure. The blowback is adjusted with the adjusting ring on the safety valve. The blowback is the pressure less than the popping pressure at which the safety valve will reset. Examples: a safety valve set to pop at 15 psig will reseat at 13 psig, the blowback is 2 psi. A safety valve set to pop at 250 psig will reseat at 245 psig the blowback is 5 psi or 2%.
