Relief Valve Nozzles - Pumps, Valves, Piping and Fittings

Relief valve nozzles are replaceable internal components that form the inlet and seating passage of pressure-relief valves installed in marine pumps, piping and machinery systems. They must match the valve manufacturer, size, pressure setting, temperature range and fluid service.

ProShipWorks provides end-to-end support to source and supply Relief Valve Nozzles for marine vessels, ship operators, industrial facilities, maintenance teams and procurement departments.

Standards, Certifications & Class Approval

Review the available standards and approval information relevant to the product. Actual certification, material traceability, inspection and classification requirements depend on the product type, intended application and purchasing specification.

Applicable Standards & Certification Applicable requirements may include ASME BPVC Section VIII, ISO 4126 and API 527 for the complete pressure-relief valve. API 526 applies primarily to standardized flanged steel pressure-relief valves. The nozzle itself is normally supplied as an OEM replacement component.
Class Approval Class approval is normally associated with the complete relief valve or protected marine system, not the nozzle alone. Acceptance may involve DNV, ABS, Lloyd's Register, Bureau Veritas or ClassNK, depending on vessel notation and application.

Installation, Maintenance & Safety Information

Installation Notes Isolate, depressurize, drain and verify the system is safe before dismantling. Confirm the valve tag, nozzle designation, material and dimensions against OEM documentation. Clean mating surfaces, install with approved gaskets where applicable, and follow OEM torque and adjustment procedures.
Maintenance Tips Inspect the nozzle seating surface for corrosion, erosion, pitting and wire-drawing during valve overhaul. Do not lap or machine beyond OEM limits. Replace damaged components and test the complete relief valve after reassembly at an approved facility.
Safety Notes Never remove or replace a nozzle while the system is pressurized. Do not alter the nozzle bore, seat angle or material. The relief valve must be correctly set, sealed where required and function-tested before returning the equipment to service.
