Fig. 18.35 Pressure relief valve
18.4.9 Lever Safety Valve
Safety valves are used to release some of the steam from the boiler when the pressure rises higher
than the safe limit.
In a lever safety valve, a load is applied through a lever, by placing a suitable weight at
some distance from the centre line of the valve to counter-balance the steam pressure in the
boiler. The distance can be adjusted by moving the weight along the lever for adjusting the
blowing-off pressure. The lever safety valves are suitable for stationery boilers.
