when working on a valve which is under
pressure.

Premature actuation can result.

of a pressure relief valve which is under
pressure.
Always approach and use any pressure relief

depends on the proper operation of the

should be kept clean and should be tested
periodically and reconditioned to make sure
they function properly.
