DNV BV Approved Marine Steam PRV for Marine Engineering Cast Steel Flanged DN15-DN100 PN1.6-6.4MPa
Product Spotlights
As a specialized manufacturer from Shanghai Zhibang Valve Manufacture Co., Ltd (established in 2016), we are proud to present our DNV BV Approved Marine Steam PRV – a high-performance pressure relief valve engineered specifically for marine engineering applications. This cast steel flanged valve, available in sizes DN15 to DN100 and pressure ratings PN1.6 to 6.4MPa, combines robust construction with certified reliability, ensuring the safety of steam systems aboard vessels. Our factory, with an annual export value of US$1-1.5 million, has been delivering valves to global markets including North America, Europe, and Southeast Asia, backed by our ISO9001 quality management system.
This PRV is designed to protect steam boilers, pipelines, and pressure vessels from overpressure conditions, which is critical for marine environments where safety and operational continuity are paramount. The valve features a direct spring-loaded mechanism, providing accurate set pressure and reliable reseating characteristics. The cast steel body offers excellent strength and corrosion resistance, while the flanged ends ensure easy installation and maintenance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
Q: What is the difference between this PRV and a standard safety valve?
A: This PRV is specifically designed for marine steam systems and has DNV/BV type approval, ensuring it meets classification society rules. It is made of cast steel for high-temperature service and has flanged connections for marine piping. -
Q: Can I get the valve with a lifting lever?
A: Yes, a lifting lever (manual or assisted) is available as an optional feature for testing the valve manually. -
Q: What flange standards are supported?
A: We support ANSI B16.5, DIN 2501, and JIS B2220. Other standards can be customized upon request. -
Q: What is the typical lead time?
A: For standard sizes and pressures, lead time is 15-25 working days after order confirmation. Custom orders may take longer. -
Q: Do you provide a certificate of conformity or material test report?
A: Yes, we provide standard certificates including material certificate, pressure test report, and DNV/BV certificate as per the classification society requirements. -
Q: Can this valve be used for other media besides steam?
A: The valve is designed for steam, but it can also be used for air, water, and other non-corrosive gases/liquids within the temperature and pressure limits. Please consult our technical team for specific media compatibility. -
Q: What is the warranty period?
A: We offer a standard 12-month warranty from the date of shipment against manufacturing defects. -
Q: How do I order the correct set pressure?
A: When placing an order, please specify the required set pressure (in MPa or bar) and the working conditions. We will adjust the valve accordingly before shipment.
Note: All specifications are subject to change for product improvement. Please contact our sales team for the latest technical data.
