The FLOW SAFE F70PR Series pilot-operated relief valve provides overpressure protection with the ability to relieve large volumes and provide consistent, leak-tight seating. This valve series is intended for installations where ASME Code construction is not required. Standard construction of the main valve assembly includes threaded (in the 1-1/2 x 2 size) or ANSI/ASME Class 150 flanged connections rated to 285 psig. The F70PR uses a modulating, flowing pilot valve (Model F100) to control the main valve. System pressure is routed from below the main valve seat through the pilot valve and to the dome cavity of the main valve. At the designated set pressure, the pilot valve vents dome pressure proportionally to demand at set pressure, and allows the piston to lift. Once system pressure is relieved, the pilot valve closes, which allows the dome to repressurize and main valve piston to close. When closed, dome pressure acts on a net positive differential area between the top and bottom of the piston assembly, creating a downward force to seat the piston. The pilot valve is leak-tight to approximately 95% of set pressure.
