Use of rupture disc in combination with safety relief valve
• Prevent leakage through the relief valve
• Prevent corrosion of the relief valve internals
• The use of “standard” material relief valves and related spare parts, resulting in substantial cost savings at the initial investment and spares
• Extend the service life of safety relief valves
