Safety Relief Valve
A spring-loaded valve designed to open and release excess pressure from a system when it surpasses a predetermined safe threshold. This type of valve is commonly used in pressure vessels, boilers, and pipelines to prevent dangerous overpressure conditions that could lead to equipment damage or failure. The valve automatically closes once the pressure returns to a safe level, ensuring the system operates within safe limits.
