PRVs are the last line of defense against overpressure in ethylene plants. They protect equipment and pipelines carrying flammable hydrocarbons through extreme temperature swings, high pressures, and corrosive service. When a valve leaks during normal operation, fails to reseat after relief, or suffers a bellows rupture, the consequences extend to emissions, product loss, and personnel safety.
Visit the Crosby J-Series Direct Spring Pressure Relief Valves page on Emerson.com for more information on dependable overpressure protection for safer and more sustainable operations.
In this 12-minute YouTube video, Elevating Safety & Efficiency: Emerson’s Revolutionary Approach to Pressure Relief Valve Monitoring, Emerson’s Ricardo Garcia demonstrates how this monitoring works and introduces the innovative bellows leak detection solution.
Adam Attig & Ricardo Garcia presented Eliminating Unseen Threats: Innovation in Bellows Leak Detection for PRVs at the 2024 4C Health, Safety & Environmental Conference.
The Bellows Leak Detection solution is a safer and more efficient method for detecting bellows failures and emissions. It consists of a backup piston and a Rosemount™ wireless or wired pressure transmitter.
In this 4:43 YouTube video, Beyond Safety: The Crosby Bellows Leak Detection Solution ensures Balanced Operation, Emerson’s Adam Attig and Ricardo Garcia show how the Bellows Leak Detection solution ensures balanced operation with a backup piston and reduces emissions by over 90% in the event of a bellows rupture.
