Threaded Safety Relief Valves Spring Loaded Accessories and Options Metal Seat
The LESER metal seats (disc and nozzle) are lapped to optical flatness to ensure a tight shut off. LESER safety relief valves are supplied with a standard leak tightness according to API 527. Type 4373 Standard material for the disc is a hardened stainless steel. The combination of a hard disc material and a softer seat material (316L) provides for improved wear resistance and longer product life. Type 4374 Disc and seat are provided in 316L material for highest corrosion resistance. Any other material which is available from bar stock can be supplied as well (e.g. Hastelloy, Monel, Alloy20,).

Optional stellited sealing surfaces 316L stellited Hardness 40 45 HRC 316L stellited Hardness 40 45 HRC
Stellited sealing surfaces For high temperature applications, or applications with abrasive fluids wear resistant sealing surfaces are recommended. The sealing surfaces of the disc, seat or nozzle can be stellited by build-upwelding. The minimum thickness of the stellite is 0.06 inch. In addition to the corrosion resistance, the stellited surface also offers a high resistance to impact and sudden changes in temperature.

Balanced Bellows
Application Bellows protect the guides, moving parts and the spring from dirt, corrosion, impurities or temperature to guarantee the proper function of the safety relief valve. Additionally they provide for back pressure compensation 1. Design Series 459 with balanced bellows is provided with a bonnet spacer to house the bellows. The spacer serves for cooling and shields the bellows against turbulences during discharge to avoid vibration and to guarantee longer lifetime.

max. 35 % of set pressure, not to exceed the maximum bellows back pressure limit up to 752 F
The bellows for type 459/462 is back pressure compensating for orifice size 0.206 Inch2 (133 mm2). It is over compensating for orifice size 0.099 Inch2 (63,6 mm2) and under compensating for orifice size 0.373 Inch2 (241 mm2). Please ask factory for details. 2 Type 4594 with heavy duty body: up to 1022 F, the temperature limits for type 462 depend on other parts e.g. soft seal materials. 3 The so called built up back pressure limit defines limit for which the proper function of the pressure relief valve is ensured. The superimposed back pressure limit of a bellows refers only to the static stability of the bellows design and does not consider the influence of the backpressure on the opening and closing of a pressure relief valve.
Conversion kits are available for an easy change from a conventional design to a balanced bellows design. Conversion kits contain all necessary parts which must be replaced (bellows, spacer, spindle and gaskets). Please refer to page 56 Spare Parts.

Threaded Safety Relief Valves Spring Loaded Accessories and Options Metal Seat
The LESER metal seats (disc and nozzle) are lapped to optical flatness to ensure a tight shut off. LESER safety relief valves are supplied with a standard leak tightness according to API 527. Type 4592 / Type 4593 Standard material for the disc is a hardened stainless steel. The combination of a hard disc material and a softer seat material (316L) provides for improved wear resistance and longer product life. Type 4594 Disc and seat are provided in 316L material for highest corrosion resistance. Any other material which is available from bar stock can be supplied as Monel, well (e.g. Hastelloy, Alloy20,).

Discs with stellited sealing surfaces For high temperature applications above 842 F, or applications with abrasive fluids wear resistant sealing surfaces are recommended. The sealing surfaces of the disc, seat or nozzle can be stellited by build-upwelding. The minimum thickness of the stellite is 0.06 inch. In addition to the corrosion resistance, the stellited surface also offers a high resistance to impact and sudden changes in temperature.

Heating Jacket
Application Pressure relief valves in systems to be protected from media which are viscous, sticky or have a tendency to crystallize out of solution can be fitted with a heating jacket. For type 459 the outlet body is fitted with a fabricated heating jacket. The position of the heating connections is shown in the drawing.
Balanced Bellows Design For safety relief valves with balanced bellows, the bonnet spacer required to house the bellows is fitted with an additional heating jacket. Both heating jackets are joined by a tubing.
Specifications of the heating jacket The operating data for the heating jacket are shown on a separate name plate.

Lift Indicator
(proximity switch)
Lift indicators are an important component for automation. They are used to monitor operating status. As an option, Series 459 can be provided with an inductive proximity switch. The lift indicator will indicate an opening of the pressure relief valve when the vessel pressure has increased so that the valve opens with a pop. LESER provides DC proximity switches type N using two-wire technology. These intrinsically safe proximity switches can be used in explosion hazard area zone 0. Other types of switches can be used as well. The lift indicator option is available for series 459 in combination with the packed lever H4 either with or without proximity switch.

First in safety
a not so brief history of LESER
History
The company started in 1818 as a brass foundry and over the decades developed a product portfolio of components for mechanical equipment and machines during the industrial revolution. At first LESER specialized on tough applications and its level gauges for steam boilers were famous. Soon, the company delivered their first safety valve and as a consequence of quick growing industrialization and improving demand for safety, LESER rapidly became the specialist for safety valves.
