    The document discusses API Standard 527 regarding seat tightness or pressure relief valves. It includes a table with orifice sizes, questions about test pressures, and responses. The key points are: 1) The orifice sizes in Table 1 should be shown as areas (in2) instead of linear dimensions (inch) to correct a typographical error. 2) The standard defines the seat tightness test pressure as 90% of the set pressure, even if system pressure rises above temporarily during startup. 3) API cannot provide rationale for its standards requirements due to limited resources, but they are based on technical data and expert committee members' judgment. 4) The standard does not address leakage

    API Standard 527 - Seat Tightness or Pressure Relief Valves

    Standard 527 527 Edition 3rd Edition July 1991 3rd Edition July 1991 Section 2.3 Table 1 3.1.3 Inquiry # 527-I-02/04 527-I-01/02 Question Should the effective orifice sizes in Table 1 be shown as areas (in.2) instead of linear dimensions (inch)? Background: The set pressure of a PRV is determined by the system design requirements, the operating modes and various relevant pressures of a system. For example, during startup, the system pressure can be higher than the normal operating pressure, and higher than the test pressure of seat tightness of a PRV. Question 1: In Section 3.1.3, seat tightness test pressure for a PRV is defined to be 90% of the set pressure. When the system pressure is maintained at 93% of the PRV set pressure during a short period of during the startup of a system, shall the test pressure for seat tightness of PRV be changed to the value above 93% of set pressure? Question 2: If the answer to Question #1 is yes, why did API specify the test pressure for seat tightness of PRV as 90% of set pressure? Why did API not recommend the test pressure be the higher pressure enveloping the pressure of any operating mode? Reply Yes. This is a typographical error that will be corrected in an errata to the standard.

    Reply 1: In Section 3.1.3, seat tightness test pressure for a PRV is defined to be 90% of the set pressure. When the system pressure is maintained at 93% of the PRV set pressure during a short period of during the startup of a system, shall the test pressure for seat tightness of PRV be changed to the value above 93% of set pressure? Reply 2: Due to limited committee resources, API cannot respond to questions seeking the rationale for requirements in its standards. These requirements are based on the consideration of technical data and the judgment and skill of experienced engineering and technical personnel representing both users and manufacturers who serve on APIs standards-writing committees. Reply 3: API Std. 527 does not address leakage above the test pressure. Please consult with the valve manufacturer.

    Question 3: If the answer Question #1 is no, is the invisible leakthrough seat at pressures above test pressure allowed below the simmering stage?
