Conservation Vent Valve (PVRV)

storage tanks and industrial systems requiring reliable pressure and vacuum protection. These valves are designed to release excess internal pressure when it rises above a preset limit and admit air or gas when a vacuum develops inside the tank. By maintaining pressure within specified operating limits, they help protect tank structures from damage caused by excessive pressure or vacuum conditions while minimizing unnecessary vapour loss during normal operation. Depending on the design, these valves can support vapour conservation and help maintain safe tank operating conditions.

Conservation Vent Valves are suitable for applications in oil and gas facilities, petroleum storage terminals, chemical processing plants, refineries and bulk liquid storage systems. They are commonly installed on atmospheric and low-pressure storage tanks containing compatible liquids and vapours. Important selection factors include pressure and vacuum settings, tank operating conditions, required venting capacity, process media, operating temperature, body and seat materials, connection size and applicable industry standards. Selecting the appropriate PVRV helps support tank protection, controlled vapour management and reliable performance under the intended operating conditions.
