Pressure relief devices, also known as the “last line of defense” for pressurized equipment, are critical for the prevention of catastrophic failures during overpressure conditions.
This on-demand course is a comprehensive review of the design, construction, installation, operation, inspection and maintenance of pressure relieving devices currently in use on all types of boilers, pressure vessels, tanks and piping. This video-based course discusses the code requirements for pressure relief devices, as covered by the following ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel (B&PV) Codes and Piping Codes.
By participating in this course, you will learn how to successfully:
- Explain the Code requirements for pressure relief devices covered by the ASME Boiler and pressure Vessel Code and the ASME Pressure Piping Codes
- Identify the design, construction and manufacturing requirements of pressure relief devices
- Select materials for various types of pressure relief valves, and rupture disks
- Explain how to apply the API RP 520 Part I, Sizing and Selection of Pressure Relieving Devices, API RP 520 Part -2, Installation of Pressure Relief Devices, and API RP 576 - Inspection of Pressure Relief Devices
- Perform calculations for sizing and selection of pressure relief devices for single phase flow of fluids
- Explain how to handle transportation, storage, installation, and maintenance of PRD’s
- Identify the requirements for testing and testing facilities
- Explain how to perform inspections as per the National Board Inspection Code (NBIC), and API standards
- Describe how to establish a National Board VR (valve repair) certification program and repair pressure relief valves
- Explain how to test pressure relief valves as required by the Code
