Supllier FARRIS 3800 Series Pilot Operated Pressure Relief Valve
WWW.DISTRIBUTORALATINDUSTRI.COM | Supllier FARRIS 3800 Series Pilot Operated Pressure Relief Valve The FARRIS 3800 Series is a pilot-operated pressure relief valve (POPRV) engineered to provide highly accurate overpressure protection for pressurized process systems. Unlike conventional spring-loaded relief valves, the 3800 Series uses a pilot control valve to actuate the main valve, allowing the valve to remain tightly sealed up to the set pressure while delivering high relieving capacity, minimal product loss, and excellent blowdown performance.
Supllier FARRIS 3800 Series Pilot Operated Pressure Relief Valve
The valve is designed for air, gas, vapor, steam, and liquid service in demanding industrial applications such as oil & gas, petrochemical, chemical processing, LNG, power generation, refining, and industrial process plants. The pilot-operated design minimizes leakage, improves system efficiency, and maintains stable operation even under varying back pressure conditions. The Farris 3800 Series is available with snap-acting or modulating pilot controls, depending on the process requirements.
Technical
- Brand : FARRIS (Curtiss-Wright)
- Product : Pilot Operated Pressure Relief Valve
- Series : 3800 Process Valve
- Valve Type : Pilot Operated Pressure Relief Valve (POPRV)
- Function : Protects pressure vessels and piping systems from overpressure by automatically relieving excess pressure.
- Operation : Pilot-Controlled Main Valve
- Pilot Options :
- Snap-Acting Pilot
- Modulating Pilot
- Applications :
- Air
- Natural Gas
- Process Gas
- Steam
- Vapor
- Liquid
- Operating Principle :
- The pilot valve senses system pressure.
- Below the set pressure, the pilot keeps pressure on the dome of the main valve, holding it tightly closed.
- When system pressure reaches the set point, the pilot vents the dome pressure, allowing the main valve to open rapidly and relieve excess pressure.
- As system pressure decreases, the pilot repressurizes the dome, causing the main valve to reseat tightly.

Available Pilot Configurations
Snap-Acting Pilot
- Opens rapidly once the set pressure is reached.
- Provides full valve lift immediately.
- Suitable for gas, vapor, and steam service requiring fast pressure relief.
Modulating Pilot
- Opens proportionally as pressure increases above the set point.
- Reduces product loss and system pressure fluctuations.
- Ideal for liquid service and applications with varying relief demand
