    Chatter: "Chattering Is The Rapid, Alternating Opening and Closing of A PR Valve"

    Uploaded by

    Zaheer Ahmad Raza
    Chattering occurs when a pressure relief valve rapidly opens and closes, which can cause vibration, damage to valve seats, and mechanical failure. It is principally caused by excessive inlet pressure drop, back pressure, an oversized valve, or a valve handling widely varying flow rates. To avoid chattering, one should minimize inlet piping length and turns, use large outlet piping, increase blow down, and consider pressure drops from connections.

    “Chattering is the rapid, alternating opening


    and closing of a PR Valve”

    Chattering may cause:


    – Vibration resulting in misalignment
    – Valve seat damage
    – Mechanical failure of valve.
    Chatter - Principal Causes

    • Excessive inlet pressure drop


    • Excessive built-up back pressure
    • Oversized valve
    • Valve handling widely differing rates
    Chatter Mechanism
    How to avoid Chattering:
    • Avoid:
    • Long inlet piping

    • Too many turns at inlet & outlet piping

    • Make outlet piping large

    • Increase blow down


    Anything wrong
    here?
    Undersized
    inlet piping
    Any concerns
    here?
    Consider the pressure drop
    from all these connections
