Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work o f preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters o f
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
di fferent types o f ISO documents should be noted. This document was dra fted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some o f the elements o f this document may be the subject o f
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identi fying any or all such patent rights. Details o f
any patent rights identified during the development o f the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is in formation given for the convenience o f users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

assessment, as well as information about ISO’s adherence to the WTO principles in the Technical
Barriers to Trade (TBT) see the following URL: Foreword - Supplementary in formation

Delete the text and substitute:


7.2.1 General Requirements

The set pressures at which the operating characteristics are determined shall be the minimum and
maximum set pressures for which the spring is designed. Valves for air or other gas service shall be
tested using air or any other gas o f known characteristics or superheated steam with a minimum o f 10 °C
of superheat. Valves for steam service shall be tested on steam, air or other gas of known characteristics.
Valves for liquid service shall be tested on water or other liquids of known characteristics.
The allowable tolerances or limits as applicable on the operating characteristics are as follows:
a) set pressure: ±3 % of set pressure or ±0,1 bar, whichever is the greater;
b) li ft at overpressure: not less than the values stated by the manu facturer;
c) overpressure: the value stated by the manu facturer but not exceeding 10 % o f set pressure or 0,1
bar, whichever is greater;
d) blowdown: not greater than the value stated by the manu facturer, but within the following limits:
— compressible fluids: minimum: 2,0 % [not applicable to sa fety valves with proportional opening
characteristics according to f)], maximum: 15 % or 0,3 bar, whichever is greater;
— incompressible fluids: minimum: 2,5 % [not applicable to sa fety valves with proportional opening
characteristics according to f)], maximum: 20 % or 0,6 bar, whichever is greater;
e) overpressure and blowdown of restricted lift valves shall have the same tolerances or limits as the
unrestricted lift valves;
f ) overpressure and blowdown o f valves with proportional opening characteristics shall be verified
and be stable for various li fts between the minimum and maximum stated by the manu facturer. A
curve shall be established for valve lift versus overpressure.
