SECTION 11
PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE
Pressure Relief Valve
- This device protects the pressure-containing components of the compressor
package against pressures exceeding 188.5 psig. It is installed on the dry-side of the oil sump.
Before inspecting the pressure relief valve, release air pressure, lockout and
tagout the power supply to the compressor package. Failure to release
pressure or properly disconnect the power may result in personal injury or
death.
Never paint, lubricate or alter a relief valve. Do not plug vent or restrict.
