LPG
External pressure relief valves are designed to be primary relief valves on LPG/NH3 tanks, ASME containers above and below ground, bulk plant installations and skid tanks, as well as their connecting piping. They provide an added security for people and equipment where overpressure can accumulate and cause disasters.
These relief valves are cost-efficient safety devices that due to their small size allow for installation where space is limited. As they are fully external, added protection is needed to prevent damage on the devices.

If used on manifolds, placement of the clapper disc in an intermediate position could restrict flow through one of the relief valves, causing it to destroy the resilient seat disc
Some relief valves incorporate integral pipeaway adapter with break off groove that protects the valve from piping stress damage
Weep hole deflectors are included in some relief valves to guard against flame impingement on adjacent containers
