In industrial production, storage tanks are key equipment for storing various types of liquids or gases, and their safety and stability are of vital importance. The balance of pressure inside and outside the tank is an important part of ensuring the normal operation of the tank and preventing safety accidents. Breather Valve, as a pressure balancing device designed specifically for tanks, plays an irreplaceable role in industrial production with its unique working principle and excellent performance.
1. Working Principle of Breather Valve
The core function of Breather Valve is to automatically adjust the pressure inside and outside the tank to keep it within a safe and stable range. When the internal pressure of the tank increases due to temperature increase, medium evaporation, etc., the valve flap of Breather Valve will automatically open, allowing internal gas or steam to escape, thereby reducing the internal pressure of the tank. On the contrary, when the internal pressure of the tank decreases due to temperature decrease, medium contraction, etc., external air or gas can enter the tank through Breather Valve to supplement the internal pressure and prevent the tank from being deformed or damaged due to negative pressure.
2. Breather Valve's Balancing Mechanism
In order to achieve the balance of pressure inside and outside the tank, Breather Valve uses a precise pressure sensing mechanism and regulating mechanism. The pressure sensing mechanism can monitor the changes in the pressure inside the tank in real time. Once the pressure exceeds or falls below the preset safety range, the regulating mechanism will respond quickly and adjust the flow of gas inside and outside the tank by opening or closing the valve flap. This automatic adjustment mechanism not only ensures the stability of the internal pressure of the tank, but also greatly improves the safety and reliability of the tank.
3. Applicability and Advantages of Breather Valve
Breather Valve is widely used in industrial fields such as petroleum, chemical, pharmaceutical, and food. Its excellent performance and wide applicability have been widely recognized by the industry. In oil tanks, Breather Valve can effectively prevent pressure fluctuations caused by temperature changes and ensure the safe operation of the tank. In chemical tanks, it can prevent the leakage of corrosive gases or steam, protecting the environment and personnel safety. In addition, Breather Valve also has the advantages of simple structure, easy installation, and low maintenance cost, which brings significant economic and social benefits to users.
IV. Selection and installation of Breather Valve
In order to ensure that the performance of Breather Valve is fully utilized, users should make comprehensive considerations based on the medium characteristics, working pressure, working temperature and other parameters of the tank when selecting. At the same time, during the installation process, relevant standards and specifications should be followed to ensure that the connection between the Breather Valve and the tank is firm and reliable, and the valve flap opens and closes flexibly. In addition, the Breather Valve should be inspected and maintained regularly to ensure that it is in good working condition for a long time.
