EMERGENCY PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE MODEL 2400A
MODEL 2400A
The Groth Model 2400A Emergency Pressure Relief Valve is designed to provide emergency relief capacity beyond that furnished by the normal operating pressure relief valve on the tank. The valve helps protects the tank against rupture or internal pressures caused by fire exposure and other emergency events and can be offered in corrosion resistant materials throughout. Model 2400A is designed to be self-closing, while Groth’s special fluoropolymer “cushioned air” pallet and peripheral guiding insures proper alignment and integrity of seating.

PRESSURE RELIEF CAPACITY
Air Flow Capacity at 100% Overpressure (Double Set Pressure/Vacuum) 1000 Standard Cubic Feet per Hour at 60°
* Standard vacuum settings, consult factory for other settings.
Flow Capacity Calculation
Flow capacity values listed above are based on full open valves at 100% overpressure. Read the flow capacity at 100% overpressure directly from the table above. Use linear interpolation if the set pressure is not listed. If the allowable overpressure is less than 100%, modify the flow capacity using the appropriate “C” factor from the table. If allowable overpressure is more than 100%, consult your Groth Representative.
Calculate the percentage overpressure by the following formula. Note that all pressures are gauge pressure expressed in the same units of measure.
Pf = Flowing pressure
Ps = Set pressure
% OP = [(Pf - Ps)/Ps] x 100
Calculate flow capacity at less than 100% overpressure according to the following example.
