1805 Series Relief Valves

WARNING

Failure to follow these instructions or to properly install and maintain this equipment could result in an explosion

and/or re causing property damage and

personal injury or death.

Fisher® relief valves must be installed, operated and maintained in accordance with federal, state, and local codes, rules

and regulations, and Emerson Process Management Regulator Technologies,

Inc. instructions.

If a leak develops or if the outlet

continually vents gas, service to the unit

may be required.

1805 Series

Failure to correct trouble could result in

a hazardous condition. Only a qualied

person must install or service the unit.

Call a gas service person to service the unit. Only a qualied person must install

or service the 1805 Series Relief Valves.

Introduction

Scope of the Manual

This Instruction Manual provides installation, adjustment, maintenance, and parts ordering information for 1805 Series relief valves.

Description

The 1805 Series relief valves are primarily designed for use in farm tap applications where a safety relief

valve is needed between the rst and second stage

regulators. The 1805 Series is suitable for service on

P1026

natural gas, air, propane, or any operating medium that is not corrosive to the internal parts. Relief pressure ranges from 5 to 125 psi / 0,34 to 8,6 bar. Maximum pressure, including buildup, is 150 psi / 10,3 bar.

Specications

The Specications section lists the specications for

the 1805 Series relief valve. The following information is stamped on the relief valve at the factory: type number, date of manufacture, spring range, maximum inlet pressure, and maximum allowable inlet pressure.

Principle of Operation

See Figure 2. Relief valves respond to changes in upstream pressure. If upstream pressure increases and exceeds the relief valve setting, the valve will open and allow gas to vent to the atmosphere. When upstream pressure returns to normal level (below the setting of the relief valve), the relief valve automatically closes and normal system operation resumes.

In the 1805 Series relief valves, the upstream pressure registers underneath the diaphragm. Gas reaches the diaphragm through the space between the O-ring

holder and the valve guide orice in 3/4 and 1 NPT

bodies or through registration holes in the valve guide

orice in 1-1/2 and 2 NPT bodies. When the upstream

pressure increases beyond the spring setting, the force on the diaphragm overcomes spring compression. The O-ring holder moves upward, carrying the O-ring away from the valve seat. This opens the

ow line, allows gas to ow to the atmosphere, and

relieves the overpressure condition. When upstream pressure registered on the diaphragm decreases to a level below that of the spring setting of the relief valve, the spring force pushes the diaphragm plate and O-ring holder toward the valve seat. Contact

between O-ring and valve seat prevents further ow

to atmosphere.
