Figure 24. Evaporator relief valves
Note: Vent line length must not exceed code
recommendations. If the line length will exceed code
recommendations for the outlet size of the valve,
install a vent line of the next larger pipe size.
Low side relief valve discharge setpoints are 200 psig.
Once the relief valve has opened, it will re-close when
pressure is reduced to a safe level.
Pipe each relief valve on the unit into a common vent line.
Provide an access valve located at the low point of the vent
piping, to enable draining of any condensate that may
accumulate in the piping.
