Example
When the PSV's "Status (Initial)" is set to inactive (ie. fully open):
Upstream Pressure = 60psi
Upstream Hydraulic Grade = 170ft
Status (Calculated)
55psi
Inactive (1)
65psi
Active (2)
80psi
Closed (3)
(1) If the PSV's "Pressure Setting (Initial)" is below the upstream pressure when "Status
(Initial)" is set to inactive, then the "Status (Calculated)" is set to Inactive (ie. fully open) as
there is no throttling necessary. This is because even with the PSV fully open, the upstream
pressure is already higher than required and any throttling would just increase the pressure
more.
(2) If the PSV's "Pressure Setting (Initial)" is above the upstream pressure when "Status
(Initial)" is set to Inactive, and throttling the PSV will allow the "Pressure Setting (Initial)" to
be maintained, then "Status (Calculated)" is set to Active (ie. partially open).
(3) If the PSV's upstream pressure can't be raised to the value defined for "Pressure Setting
(Initial)", then the "Status (Calculated)" is set to Closed to provide the maximum upstream
pressure.
Similarly, for: "Setting Type" = Hydraulic grade
Hydraulic Grade Setting (Initial)
Status (Calculated)
160ft
Inactive (4)
175ft
Active (5)
200ft
Closed (6)
(4) If the PSV's "Hydraulic Grade Setting (Initial)" is below the upstream hydraulic grade
when "Status (Initial)" is set to inactive, then the "Status (Calculated)" is set to Inactive (ie.
fully open) as there is no throttling necessary. This is because even with the PSV fully open,
the upstream hydraulic grade is already higher than required and any throttling would just
increase the hydraulic grade more.
(5) If the PSV's "Hydraulic Grade Setting (Initial)" is above the upstream hydraulic grade
when "Status (Initial)" is set to Inactive, and throttling the PSV will allow the "Hydraulic
Grade Setting (Initial)" to be maintained, then "Status (Calculated)" is set to Active (ie.
partially open).
(6) If the PSV's upstream hydraulic grade can't be raised to the value defined for "Hydraulic
grade Setting (Initial)", then the "Status (Calculated)" is set to Closed to provide the
maximum upstream hydraulic grade.
