Pressure level relationships Rupture disks

Figure 7-7B. Pressure level relationships for rupture disk devices. Reprinted by permission, Sizing, Seiection and instaiiation of Pressure Relieving Dewces in Refineries, Part 1 Sizing and Selection," API RP-520, 5th Ed., July 1990, American Petroleum Institute.

Table 7-9 summarizes the usual recommended relationship between the operating pressure of a process (should be maximum expected upper range level) and the set pressure of the rupture disk. Recognize that the set pressure of the disk must not exceed the MAWP of the vessel. (See Eigures 7-31A and 31B.) The burst pressure, P, can now be defined. The use of the manufacturing range...
