Consolidated™ Pressure Relief Valves announces the release of the NEW, patented “Cryodisc” technology as an optimized seat leakage solution for pressure relief valves operating under cryogenic conditions. Pressure Relief Valves (PRVs) are a requirement for overpressure protection within the LNG industry. However, not all PRVs are created equally when it comes to performance within cryogenic applications, and design temperatures as low as -320°F (-196°C). These applications require enhanced sealing features to address the thermal expansion, resulting from cryogenic conditions, to ensure proper performance of their primary safety function.
Through advanced FEA (Finite Element Analysis) and lab testing, Consolidated has advanced the state of the art with this technology to yield greater results. In our new white paper, “Designing PRVs for Cryogenic Optimization”, Matt Byers outlines the research and patented technology that Baker Hughes offers as a leader in this application. Continuous research and development at our state-of-the-art Jacksonville factory have continued to give Consolidated a leading position in safety and safety relief valve technology, giving confidence that without a doubt, Consolidated is “Best Under Pressure”.
