1. To determine capacities at set pressures or
buildups not given in Tables 4 and 5, use one
of the following formulas, and convert according
to the factors in the preceding paragraph
if necessary:
Q = (P
1
+ buildup)
abs
C
g
520
GT
2. For pressure drops lower than critical (absolute
outlet pressure greater than one-half of absolute
inlet pressure), use the following formula:
Q = C
g
(P
1
+ buildup)
abs

where,
Q = ow capacity in SCFH
G = specic gravity of gas
T = absolute temperature of gas at inlet in °Rankine
(°Rankine = °F + 460)
C
g
= sizing coefcient from Table 3
(P

ΔP = pressure drop across the valve in psig
To determine relief capacities in U.S. gallons per
minute, use the Catalog 10 liquid sizing procedures
in conjunction with the appropriate liquid sizing
coefcient (C
v
) and recovery coefcient (K
m
) from the
Specications section. Then, if capacity is desired in
Nm
3
/h, multiply U.S. gallons per minute by 0.2271.
Refer to the Specications section on page 2. Fill
out the order guide on page 7, carefully review the
description of each specication. Always specify the
type numbers of other desired equipment as well as
the main valve and pilot.
