övertrycksöverfyllnadsskydd

övertrycksöverfyllnadsskydd is a Swedish term that translates to "overpressure overflow protection". It refers to a safety system designed to prevent both over-pressurization and overflow in a vessel or tank. This type of protection is crucial in industrial processes where liquids or gases are stored or transported under pressure.

The system typically consists of multiple components. A pressure relief valve is a primary element, designed to open and release excess pressure if it exceeds a predetermined safe limit. This prevents the vessel from rupturing. Simultaneously, an overflow prevention mechanism, often a level sensor or float switch, monitors the fill level. If the level approaches the maximum capacity, this sensor will trigger an alarm or activate a shut-off mechanism to stop the inflow of the substance.

The combined function of övertrycksöverfyllnadsskydd ensures operational safety and environmental protection. By preventing both pressure build-up and spillage, it minimizes the risk of accidents, equipment damage, and hazardous material release. These systems are commonly found in chemical plants, oil refineries, water treatment facilities, and other industrial settings where maintaining controlled conditions is paramount. The design and implementation of such protection are subject to strict regulations and standards to guarantee their reliability.
