African Valve is a leading Safety Valve Manufacturer in Africa. We supply valves to Madagascar, Kenya, Algeria and South Africa. A safety valve is a mechanical device designed to protect equipment, personnel, and the environment from damage or harm caused by overpressure in a system. It works by automatically releasing excess pressure when the pressure inside a vessel or pipeline exceeds a predetermined level. The valve is designed to open at a set pressure and release fluid or gas from the system until the pressure drops to a safe level. This prevents dangerous situations such as explosions, fires, and structural damage that can occur when the pressure in the system exceeds its design limits. There are different types of safety valves, including spring-loaded valves, pilot-operated valves, and relief valves. The spring-loaded valve is the most common type of safety valve and works by using a spring to hold the valve closed until the pressure inside the system reaches a set point. At this point, the spring force is overcome, and the valve opens to release the excess pressure. Pilot-operated valves are used in high-pressure systems and work by using a pilot valve to control the flow of fluid or gas through the main valve. Relief valves are used in low-pressure systems and operate by using a piston or spring to control the flow of fluid or gas through the valve. African Valve is the topmost Safety Valve Manufacturer in Africa. Our Safety valves are used in a wide range of industries, including petrochemicals, power generation, mining, oil industry and many more. They are typically used in equipment such as pressure vessels, boilers, pipelines, and tanks. Parts: 1. Body 2. Valve seat 3. Valve orifice 4. Disc or poppet 5. Spring 6. Bonnet 7. Nozzle Types: 1.

Safety valves are designed to protect against overpressure in a system, preventing catastrophic failures that can lead to explosions, fires, and other accidents. This protection helps to ensure the safety of personnel, equipment, and the environment. 2. Many industries are required by law to use safety valves in their equipment and systems. Compliance with these regulations helps to ensure the safety of workers and the general public. 3. Safety valves are designed to operate automatically when pressure reaches a predetermined level. This automatic operation means that the valve does not rely on human intervention to operate, which makes it more reliable in emergency situations. 4. These valves can be designed to meet the specific requirements of a wide range of applications, from low-pressure gas storage tanks to high-pressure steam boilers. This flexibility allows safety valves to be used in a variety of industries and settings. 5. They are a cost-effective way to protect equipment and personnel from overpressure. They are generally less expensive than other safety measures, such as pressure relief systems or rupture discs. 6. By preventing overpressure, safety valves can help to increase the lifespan of equipment and reduce the need for maintenance or repairs. Industries: 1. Oil and Gas Industry 2. Chemical Industry 3.
