Subject: pressure relief valve
Sent: Jan 23, 2009 2:41 AM
I was called to look a leaking riser. I got on the job site and found a
Tyco Model 513 Test and Drain with a pressure relief valve. I think the
pressure relief valve is leaking. The main drain outlet is wet and the
sight glass is obscured with rust. Their are a total of 5 wet risers, all
in a row. Some risers have pressure relief valves and some do not have
pressure relief valves. Why? Can I just remove the pressure relief valve.
My thought is the designer specified the pressure relief valve for a reason,
the valve needs to be in place.
