Pressure Relief Valves (PRVs) play a critical role in industrial systems by preventing overpressure conditions that could lead to equipment damage or catastrophic failures. Proper PRV valve calibration ensures that these safety devices function accurately, protecting both personnel and machinery. In Bangladesh, industries such as power generation, oil and gas, and manufacturing rely heavily on calibrated PRVs to maintain operational safety and efficiency.
PRV valves are designed to release excess pressure automatically when the system exceeds a preset limit. Over time, wear and tear, corrosion, or mechanical adjustments can affect the valve's performance. Without regular calibration, PRVs may either fail to release pressure on time or open prematurely, leading to production losses, costly downtime, and potential safety hazards.
Regular calibration ensures:
Accurate pressure settings to match system requirements.
Reduced risk of equipment damage and industrial accidents.
Compliance with safety standards and regulatory requirements.
Enhanced operational efficiency by preventing unnecessary shutdowns.
The calibration process involves testing the valve against standard pressure settings using specialized equipment. Experienced technicians assess the opening and closing pressures and adjust the valve to the manufacturer’s specifications. Modern calibration techniques also include digital recording of calibration results, ensuring traceability and long-term monitoring.
Key steps in PRV calibration include:
Inspection: Checking for wear, corrosion, or mechanical damage.
Testing: Applying controlled pressure to measure opening and closing points.
Adjustment: Fine-tuning the valve to ensure accurate setpoints.
Documentation: Recording results for quality assurance and compliance.
