    This document discusses pressure/surge relief valves and surge anticipating valves. It describes how pressure relief valves open to relieve excessive pressure and close once pressure is maintained. Surge anticipating valves open immediately to anticipate upsurges in pressure and close under normal conditions. Surge vessels are also discussed as using compressed air or bladders to control surge pressures in piping systems. The document provides examples of typical installations and explains the operation and design considerations of these components for controlling pressure in pumping systems.

    The key takeaways are that pressure relief valves are used to relieve excessive pressure in piping systems, surge anticipating valves anticipate upsurge pressure to lessen stress on piping, and surge vessels use compressed air or gas to control surge pressure in piping.

    Pressure relief valves are used to relieve excessive pressure in the system. They are normally direct actuated or pilot actuated valves that open at a set pressure point to relieve pressure and slowly close once pressure is maintained.

    Surge anticipating valves are used to anticipate upsurge pressure in the system to lessen stress. They are normally double pilot actuated valves that open immediately in anticipation of upsurge pressure and remain open for a predetermined time to relieve pressure.

    Pressure/Surge Relief Valve
     Pressure relief valve is used to
    relieve excessive pressure in
    the system. It is normally direct
    actuated or pilot actuated
    valve.
     Operation : PRV is a normally
    close valve installed at the
    discharge of the system. PRV
    opens and relieve pressure at a
    set point and closes slowly until
    the pressure of the system is
    maintained.

    Surge Anticipating Valve
     Surge anticipating valve is used
    to anticipate the upsurge
    pressure in the system to lessen
    the stress in the piping system.
    It is normally a double pilot
    actuated valve.

    5
    Operation
     SAV open immediately upon such an event in
    “anticipation” of the upsurge pressure. Closed tight under
    all normal operating conditions.
     Opens fully upon power outage and/or when the system
    pressure falls to a pre-set minimum (downsurge)
    pressure as a result of a sudden stoppage of pumping.
     Remains fully open for a pre-determined time
     Closes slowly when the time expires
     In addition, the valve opens as a surge relief valve should
    system pressure attempt to rise above its set point for
    protection against "upsurge" pressure.

    Surge Vessel
     Surge vessel is used for piping
    systems to control surge
    pressure using a tank filled with
    air.
     2 types of surge vessel:
     Compressor type - air over water
     Bladder type – pre-charged air

    9
    OPERATION PRINCIPLE
     Initial pre-charged pressure is
    adjusted to value from
    hydraulic analysis.
     Then the gate valve will open to
    let the water enter the vessel
    under static condition. (static
    pressure > pre-charged press.)
     The water entering the vessel
    will further compress the pre-
    charged gas until the balance is
    attained.

    10
    OPERATION PRINCIPLE
     Immediately after the pump
    stop the pressure in the line will
    start to decrease and the vessel
    will discharged the water to the
    line.
     When the pressure is very low,
    the flow will reverse and the
    water will enter into the vessel.
     When the pump start, the
    vessel will continue to fill until
    dynamic steady state is
    attained.
