    A depressurization system comprises an actuated valve and a restriction orifice. The BDV valve is normally held in the closed position but opens on demand or on failure of the actuator. A restriction orifice (RO) downstream of the BDV is sized to achieve the desired blowdown rate. A locked-open valve may be located downstream of the orifice.

    There is a variety of manufacturers of these gauges, but most utilize either a three-valve or a five-valve design to test the RPZD in different ways. In the UK , [ 6 ] Illinois, New York , [ 7 ] Texas , [ 8 ] and Missouri ( RsMO 10c60-11 ), the RPZD valve must be tested at least every 12 months by an accredited tester.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blowout_preventer

    Pipe rams close around a drill pipe, restricting flow in the annulus (ring-shaped space between concentric objects) between the outside of the drill pipe and the wellbore, but do not obstruct flow within the drill pipe. Variable-bore pipe rams can accommodate tubing in a wider range of outside diameters than standard pipe rams, but typically ...

  6. Control valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_valve

    A control valve is a valve used to control fluid flow by varying the size of the flow passage as directed by a signal from a controller. [1] This enables the direct control of flow rate and the consequential control of process quantities such as pressure, temperature, and liquid level.

  7. Relief valve - Wikipedia

    A relief valve DN25 on cooling water pipe from heat exchanger Schematic diagram of a conventional spring-loaded pressure relief valve. A relief valve or pressure relief valve (PRV) is a type of safety valve used to control or limit the pressure in a system; excessive pressure might otherwise build up and create a process upset, instrument or equipment failure, explosion, or fire.

  9. Valve actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_actuator

    The blue valve body is visible in-line with the pipe. The valve actuator opens or closes the butterfly disc of the valve based on electrical signals sent to the actuator. Another valve actuator is visible in the background, with windows to indicate the valve position. A valve actuator is the mechanism for opening and closing a valve. Manually ...
