Pressure Building Circuit
The pressure building circuit serves to build pressure after filling the vessel. The circuit is also used to
ensure sufficient driving pressure during high product withdrawal periods. Opening the pressure build
-
ing circuit valve (V-4) permits the circuit to function. A stainless steel tag labeled “P.B.” is attached to
the valve. When the pressure inside the vessel drops below the pressure builder setting, the pressure
building stage of the pressure building/economizer regulator (PCV-1) opens. This creates a path from
the liquid in the bottom of the container to the gas space in the top. This path contains an internal
pressure building coil (PBC-1) to vaporize product as it flows from the bottom to the top of the vessel.
Liquid is expanded to a vapor and pressure is increased in the vessel. The pressure building coil is at-
tached to the inside surface of the vacuum jacket.
