0
19.2 Safety Relief Valve Design
19.2.1 All pressure relief/safety valves shall be sized and installed in accordance with API RP 520 and
ASME Code Section VIII Div.1
19.2.2 All applicable local and national codes shall be complied.
19.2.3 Vendor shall submit sizing calculation for each safety valve for all cases including rated relieving flow
capacity, reaction force and noise level calculation. The size of the relief valve shall be determined
based on most severe individual scenario/relief condition.
19.2.4 Valve selection will be based on maximum operating temperature and relief valve set pressure.
19.2.5 Discharge velocity shall not exceed 0.5 mach
19.2.6 When "IBR Certification" is required as per datasheet, all valves shall be provided with IBR form IIIC
certificate.
19.2.7 End Connections shall normally be flanged with facing and rating in accordance with the datasheet.
However, where applicable API STD 526 sizes and ratings shall always govern. Centre-to-face
dimensions shall be in accordance with API STD 526 where applicable.
19.2.8 Percentage Over-pressure, Accumulation and Blow-down used in the calculation of orifice sizes of
relieving devices shall be as follows:

 Over-pressure (from set pressure):

10% - Gas or vapour service
10% - For liquids
10.4% - For succeeding valves in multiple valve installation
16% - For first valve in multiple valve installation
21% - Fire exposure on unfired pressure vessels
 Accumulation:
10% - Gas, vapour and liquid where ASME Pressure Vessel Code (Section
VIII) applies
16% - Gas, vapour and liquid where ASME Pressure Vessel Code (Section
VIII) applies and the system is protected by means of multiple valves
21% - Fire exposure on unfired pressure vessels
