Pressure safety valve (PSV)

Flanged spring-loaded relief valve with an angle body, bolted bonnet, closed or open-yoke spring housing with exposed coil, screwed cap with seal wire, optional packed lifting lever and bellows vent. Inlet and outlet sizes, classes and centre-to-face dimensions come from API 526 for the orifice letter and inlet class. Origin at the body centre; inlet faces down, outlet faces +X.

Installation

$npx -y https://decktwin.com/cli/deck-twin-0.2.2.tgz add pressure-safety-valve

Copies valves/pressure-safety-valve.tsx and the shared lib/ into src/components/deck-twin/. Needs three, @react-three/fiber and @react-three/drei. See installation for the manual route.

Usage

import { Canvas } from '@react-three/fiber'
import { OrbitControls } from '@react-three/drei'
import { Stage } from './components/deck-twin/lib/stage'
import { PressureSafetyValve } from './components/deck-twin/valves/pressure-safety-valve'

export default function Scene() {
  return (
    <Canvas shadows camera={{ position: [8, 5, 9], fov: 35 }}>
      <Stage>
        <PressureSafetyValve />
      </Stage>
      <OrbitControls makeDefault />
    </Canvas>
  )
}

P&ID

P&ID symbol for pressure-safety-valve

Angle body: one triangle pointing up from the inlet below and one pointing in from the outlet on the side, meeting at a right angle, with a zig-zag spring rising from the meeting point to a short cap line. The set pressure and orifice letter (e.g. 3K4, set 42 barg) are written beside it.

The spring zig-zag tells it from a check valve or a plain angle valve. A rupture disc (PSE) is drawn as a curved disc between flanges with no spring. Size code like 3K4 means 3" inlet, K orifice, 4" outlet. The outlet line goes to the flare header (FL / RV) or to atmosphere; on a pilot-operated PSV a small pilot box is drawn beside the spring. ISA codes here: PSE = rupture disc.

Machine-readable entry with props, ranges, defaults and ports:

$npx -y https://decktwin.com/cli/deck-twin-0.2.2.tgz info pressure-safety-valve

Or fetch /r/pressure-safety-valve.json, or copy a ready-made instruction:

Add the Deck Twin "Pressure safety valve (PSV)" component to this project. Run `npx -y https://decktwin.com/cli/deck-twin-0.2.2.tgz add pressure-safety-valve` (it copies the file and the shared lib into src/components/deck-twin/), then `npx -y https://decktwin.com/cli/deck-twin-0.2.2.tgz info pressure-safety-valve` for its props, ranges and ports. Render <PressureSafetyValve /> inside a React Three Fiber <Canvas shadows>, wrapped in <Stage> from src/components/deck-twin/lib/stage. Set props from my data (metres, NPS in inches, ASME class) and leave the rest at defaults. Install three, @react-three/fiber, @react-three/drei and @types/three if they're missing.
