LPPOV: Low Pressure Pilot Operated Valve
LPPOV,s are specialized pressure relief devices designed to protect systems operating at lower pressures. Unlike traditional spring-loaded safety valves, these valves use a **pilot mechanism** to control the opening and closing of the main valve, offering greater precision and efficiency.
-**Standard: API 2000
- **Pilot Control: The pilot valve senses system pressure and triggers the main valve to open when necessary.
- **Zero Leakage at High Operating Pressure: Ensures tight sealing up to 98% of the set pressure.
- **Stable Overpressure Cycle: Prevents rapid cycling and valve chatter, ensuring smooth operation.
- **Compact & Lightweight Design: Compared to direct spring-loaded valves, pilot-operated valves are smaller and easier to install.
- **Adjustable Blowdown: Allows fine-tuning of pressure settings for optimal performance.
- **Materials & Sizing: Available in stainless steel and carbon steel, with sizes ranging from **1" x 2" to 20" x 24"**.
These valves are commonly used in steam, gas, and liquid applications where precise pressure control is essential
