Dear All,
I would like to seek your views on the following:
- Requirement for full bore isolation valves at PSV inlet.. ASME SEC VIII recommends them to be full bore by stating'' full area stop valves'' . While API 520 Part II removed this requirement in its latest revision.
- Requirement for FB isolation valves downstream the PSV
- Requirement for full bore isolation valves downstream the restriction orifice which is on emergency blowdown valves.
Thanks
Regards,

My two cents:
The reason for using Full Bore valve for isolation of PSV
1) Low pressure drop
2) Allows no liquid pocket formation in the piping
