Inspection

Inspector Detail

Common issues

  • Pallet/seat fouling from cargo vapour residue, or icing in cold conditions, causing the valve to stick
  • Weight/spring loading drift changing the actual set pressure from the nameplate value
  • Corrosion of the pallet or seat reducing sealing and allowing vapour loss
  • Incorrect breaker liquid level/type on flame-arrestor/breaker designs, reducing protection
  • Mechanical damage to the pallet guide causing binding
  • Icing in cold trades blocking valve operation

Inspection checklist

  • Visual check of pallet and seat for corrosion, deposits or damage
  • Function test (manual lift/lower where fitted) for free movement
  • Check set pressure against the nameplate at survey/bench test where required
  • Inspect for signs of icing or vapour deposit build-up
  • Check the flame screen/breaker element, if fitted, for blockage or damage
  • Verify weathertightness of the housing/cover
  • Check mounting flange and gasket condition at the tank connection

Service intervals

Visual inspectionper PMS, typically at each port call or monthly
Function test / lift checkbefore cargo operations, and per the vessel's vent system survey schedule
Set pressure verification (bench test)at drydocking/special survey, or per class interval
Overhaul (pallet, seat, seals)condition-based, commonly every 2.5-5 years

Typical intervals for this design class, not the manufacturer’s figures for your model. The manufacturer’s manual is binding.

Typical wear limits

Set pressure driftrenew/reset if the verified set pressure deviates from the nameplate beyond the tolerance stated in the valve's test certificate - no generic figure, use the bench test result

Ranges are typical for this design class. Always confirm against the manufacturer documentation for your serial number.

Critical spares

  • Pallet and seat set
  • Gasket/seal kit for the housing
  • Flame screen element, if fitted
  • Spring/weight set matched to the 2100 mbar setting - renew only with maker-verified parts

Safety

  • Flammable or toxic vapour release at the valve during venting - avoid ignition sources and observe enclosed space/hot work restrictions nearby
  • Overpressure or vacuum hazard to the cargo tank structure if the valve sticks or is set incorrectly
  • Working at height on deck/tank top to access the valve

Class survey

Cargo tank PV valves are checked at each relevant tanker/cargo ship survey for correct set pressure, free movement and flame screen condition where fitted; class will normally want a valid bench test or manufacturer service certificate confirming the set pressure.

Estimated lifetime: PV valves are serviced on a calendar/survey basis rather than running hours; a typical overhaul interval is at drydocking or special survey, roughly every 2.5-5 years, condition and cargo service dependent

For marine equipment hardly any maker or authorised dealer will name a price while the vessel is unknown. With the vessel details, availability and price can be settled faster; without them we may have to ask first, which costs a few days. If you are not allowed to name the vessel, a photo of the rating plate is enough — attach it below or send it as a reply to our confirmation e-mail.
