Alfa Laval SB Pressure Relief Valve
The Alfa Laval SB Pressure Relief Valve is a hygienic safety valve engineered to release excess liquid caused by overpressure in process tanks or vessels due to overfilling. When the internal pressure surpasses a preset threshold, the valve opens to vent the fluid and automatically closes once the pressure drops below the set point. This prevents damage to the tank and ensures safe operation. This safety valve is designed for use in hygienic processes in the brewery, dairy, food, beverage and many other industries, the valve can be integrated as part of a SCANDI BREW® tank top system.

How does SB Pressure Relief Valve work? |
|
| The preset opening pressure must be set at a value that is above the tank working pressure: 0.1 bar above for working pressures <1 bar, and 10% above for working pressures ≥ 1 bar. The tank relief valve should be installed horizontally; however, a maximum inclination of 10° is acceptable, but the lever arm must then point inward toward the centre of the cylindroconical tank top. |
What is the purpose of an SB pressure relief valve in a brewery tank?
The hygienic pressure relief valve is designed to protect brewery tanks from overpressure and vacuum conditions, ensuring safe and reliable fluid handling during brewing operations.
Why is overpressure protection important in food and beverage tanks?
Overpressure protection prevents structural damage, leaks, and contamination in food and beverage tanks, maintaining operational safety and product integrity.
