superheaters, but may be used on process steam.
Design Simplicity
Consolidated® SRVs have few component parts,
resulting in savings by minimizing spare parts
inventory and simplifying valve maintenance.

Nomenclature Related to
Design Features
The nomenclature of the components of 1900™
Series valves, including those with design
options for bellows, O-ring seat, liquid trim, and
Thermodisc®, is identified in Figures 1 through 6.

Simple Blowdown Adjustment


The Consolidated® single blowdown ring design
makes it possible to set and test a valve at the
customer’s shop when it is impractical to set and
media may be very low, the ring can be positioned
so that the set point can be observed without
damaging the valve. Blowdown can be attained by
positioning the ring in accordance with the adjusting
ring position (see Tables 12 through 14).

Valve Interchangeability
A standard Consolidated® SRV may be converted
to the bellows type, the O-ring seat seal type, etc.,
and vice versa. Should conversion be required, this
interchangeability lowers costs and requires fewer
new parts than replacing entire valve types.

! DANGER Recommended Installation Practices


Mounting Position
Mount SRVs in a vertical (upright) position (in accordance with API RP 520). Installing
a safety relief valve in any position other than vertical (±1 degree) will adversely affect
its operation as a result of the induced misalignment of moving parts.
Mount safety relief A stop valve may be placed between the pressure vessel and its relief valve only as

associated with the pipe size of the SRV inlet. The pressure drop from the vessel
to the SRV shall not exceed 3% of the valve’s set pressure, when flowing at full
capacity.
! DANGER
Ensure the flanges and sealing faces of the valve and connective piping are free from
dirt, sediment, and scale.
Ensure all flange bolts are drawn evenly to prevent distortion of the valve body and
the inlet nozzle.

Do not mount valve Position SRVs for easy access and/or removal so that servicing can be properly

normally no flow or Inlet Piping
near elbows, tees,
bends, etc. The inlet piping (see Figure 7) to the valve should be short and directly from the
vessel or equipment being protected. The radius of the connection to the vessel
should permit smooth flow to the valve. Avoid sharp corners. If this is not practical,
! CAUTION then the inlet should be at least one additional pipe diameter larger.
The pressure drop from the vessel to the valve shall not exceed 3% of valve set
pressure when the valve is allowing full capacity flow. The inlet piping should never
be smaller in diameter than the inlet connection of the valve. Excessive pressure
drop in gas, vapor, or flashing-liquid service at the inlet of the SRV will cause the

• To check the seating surfaces, remove all

shine the seat with the same lap using the
lapping method as described above. Low
sections on the seating surface show up
as shadow in contrast to the shiny portion.
If shadows are present, further lapping is
necessary. Only laps known to be flat can
be used. It should take only a few minutes to
remove the shadows.
• When lapping is complete, any lines appearing
as cross-scratches can be removed by rotating
the lap on its axis (which has been wiped clean

• Thoroughly clean the lapped seat using a lint-

Recommended Backpressure Testing for Joint Leakage


If the valve is to be used in a closed discharge system, backpressure-test the valve
after it has been set for the correct opening pressure. Conduct testing by installing
the screwed cap (21) with a cap gasket (27) and applying air or nitrogen to the base
drain connection or to the valve outlet. Seal all other openings.
Test pressure should be the greater of 30 psig (2 barg) or the actual valve
backpressure. Hold air or nitrogen pressure for 3 minutes before applying leak
detector solution to all connections (joints).
On bellows valves, hand-tighten a clean pipe plug in the bonnet vent connection in
order to obtain the smallest possible leak path. Remove this plug after the test.
Apply liquid leak detector to the following SRV components and examine for leakage
during backpressure testing:
• Nozzle/base joint.
• Adjusting ring pin seal.
• Base/bonnet joint.
• Bonnet/cap joint.
• “Tight” bonnet vent plug, if conventional valve.
• “Loose” bonnet vent plug, if bellows valve.

If a leak is discovered, attempt repair of the leaking joint(s) by tightening it while the
! DANGER SRV is still on the stand. If the leak continues, tear down the leaking joint(s) and
inspect both the metal surface(s) and gasket(s). If the valve internals have been
disturbed, it is necessary to retest in accordance with the instructions within this
manual. Otherwise, repeat the backpressure tests outlined above.

* After August 1978, all 1900TM SRV Nozzles manufactured have increased bore diameter. The above chart shows how each orifi ce was affected.
Nozzles - original vs. new - are interchangeable, but nozzle laps are not. On the outer diameter (OD) of the new nozzles, the letter “C” is stamped.
If this stamp becomes obliterated, the nozzle bore diameter must be measured to select the correct nozzle lap from above chart (see Table 23).
** Nozzle lap handles are interchangeable between original and new nozzle laps.
*** Ring laps - One set of three (3) ring laps is recommended for each orifi ce to assure ample fl at laps are available at all times.

Replacement Parts Identification and Ordering


Planning Essentials
When ordering service parts, furnish the following
information to ensure receipt of the correct
Basic Guidelines replacement parts:
Use the following guidelines as reference for 1. Identify valve by the following nameplate data:
developing a replacement parts plan: • Size
• Type
1. Classify the total number of valves in service by • Temperature Class
size, type, and temperature class. • Serial Number
2. Classify parts inventory by the tendency to ○ Example 1: 1-1/2˝ 1910Fc
require replacement. S/N TD-94578
• Class I - Most frequently replaced 2. Specify parts required by:
• Part Name (see Figures 1 through 6)
• Class II - Less frequently replaced but critical
• Part Number (if known)
in an emergency
• Quantity
3. Parts for the valve types covered by this manual

to the total number of valves in service by size
and type. For example, a “Qty. Parts of 1” for Contact Parts Marketing: (318) 640-6044.
“Valves in Service of 5” means that one part
should be stocked for every five valves of the
same type and size in service.
4. When ordering replacement parts, state the
size, type, and serial number of the valve
for which parts are required using correct
nomenclature (see Figures 1 through 6).
5. Predicted availability indicates the percentage
chance the user plant will have the right parts
to make a proper repair (i.e., if Class I parts
are stocked at the owner’s facility, the parts
needed to repair the valve in question will be
immediately available in 70% of all instances). Figure 44 - Typical Valve Nameplate

Replacement Parts List


Consult the Recommended Spare Parts list (see
Tables 28 and 29) to define the parts to be included
in the inventory plan. Select the desired parts and
determine those required for proper maintenance of
the valve population in the plant.

Genuine Dresser Parts


Each time replacement parts are needed, keep
these points in mind:
• Dresser, Inc. designed the parts.

Figure 46 - Typical Valve Nameplate • Dresser, Inc. guarantees the parts.


• Consolidated® valve products have been in

ATTENTION!
To determine if the valve contains Glide-
Aloy™ components (i.e., the disc holder (8)
and/or the guide (9)), which are identified by
the coding found on the valve nameplate,
see Optional Glide-Aloy™ Parts.

When the SRV is repaired, a metal repair
