Emergency Vents

For protection against fire exposure and vacuum relief

Emission control and safety equipment for low pressure

storage tanks
 DESCRIPTION
Due to the great risk involved in storing combustible
liquids, new safety standards have been implemented
that include devices to protect investment, life and
care for the environment.

In the event of a fire on the outside of a storage tank,

this instrument will act as a safety valve, relieving
excess pressure inside the tank and eliminating the
possibility of an explosion.

It works when there is overpressure inside or a fire

occurs on the outside of the tank. The fire causes a
rapid release of vapors that would normally create an
explosion in the tank, but this is avoided thanks to the
vent reducing the pressure of the vapors to a level
that has been calculated in advance.
 CHARACTERISTICS
Materials of Construction: Diaphragm:
Type 356 aluminum, carbon steel with stainless Made out of floating type Teflon, reinforced by
steel seat and type 316 stainless steel vents. elastomer.

Sizes: Options:
8”, 10”, 16”, 20” y 24”.
Calibration by weight with cable and calibration
by springs, With 6” diameter central measurement
Connections: hatch, and With pressure and vacuum relief.
Connections: Flanges, ANSI/ASA 8”16”, 20”
and 24” and API 20” and 24” flanges, type FF
and RF
Flow capacity test:
Carried out in a single laboratory in Mexico with
traceability to CENAM for pressure and vacuum;
Weigth loaded set : according to API 2000 sixth edition.
From; 4”H2O to 8”H2O. With cable and optio-
nal with damping springs.
Maximum leak level test:
Maximum allowable leakage is 1scfh; at 90% of the
Spring Calibration: aperture setting (individual test).
Higher than 4.1” H2O and up to 15 PSIG.
Operation Test:
Meet API2000 on certified test bench

Both tests are supported by real-time opening

(pressure / vacuum) and leak graphs.

Coating:
Made of high solids polyurethane for marine
environments

Certification:
SIGE (International Society for Management and
Evaluation) certifies that the company's Quality
Management System complies the requirements
of the standard: ISO 9001:2015, with the scope:

Manufacturing, Maintenance and Adjustment of

Protective Equipment and Safety Relief Valves;
Laboratory Testing of Protective Equipment and
Safety Valves, with Certificate No. 2016CRE-589
and is a Partner of IQNET with the Registration:
MX-2016CRE-589.
