Good Gear Solution Philippines Executive, Enhancing PioneerTEST Safety Valve Testing Capabilities with PioneerTEST Load Cells
Every GoodGear safety valve testing training trip will convey our professional perseverance in safety valve testing.
Valve inspection trip
The PioneerTEST yet again stuns us by showing its prowess in South East Asia, this time at one of Philippines’ largest electricity generating power plant. Generally speaking, larger power plants contain higher rated boilers, which means that its safety valves has relatively higher set pressures.
During operation, springs of safety valves are most elastic when the operating pressure is approximately 70-80% from the set pressure of the valves. Hence theoretically, it would take a significantly higher lifting force to accurately test safety valves which are in an almost cold state environment- for example, when the plant is shutting down.
Safety Valve Pioneer Test
With Good Gear’s uniquely designed robust load cells, it was possible to test the safety valves of superheater outlets which was only 50% of the high set pressure of 30.3Mpa. Our Engineer, along with our counterpart in the Philippines tested a few valves of this capacity there.
The highly rated load cells that Good Gear provides you with would ensure that you need not fret about the line pressures, as we could still come up with the corresponding lifting forces to ensure that your safety valves are precisely and most importantly, accurately tested.

Safety Valve Pioneer Test Instructions
Pressure safety valves (PSVs) play a crucial role in safeguarding industrial processes by relieving excess pressure to prevent equipment damage and ensure operational safety. Testing these valves is essential to ensure they function as intended. One innovative tool that contributes to the accuracy of this testing process is the Limit Force Device from PioneerTEST. In this article, we will explore how the Limit Force Device enhances accuracy in capturing precise set pressure, especially in scenarios where the safety valve undergoes simmering.
Improved Accuracy during Simmering
Simmering, a phenomenon where a safety valve opens slightly to discharge only a small percentage of its rated capacity, poses a unique challenge during testing. Traditional testing methods may struggle to capture the precise set pressure during simmering, as the valve’s movement is minimal and subtle. This is where the Limit Force Device proves to be invaluable.
Understanding the Limit Force Device
The Limit Force Device is a key component in the PioneerTEST equipment designed for PSV testing. Its primary function is to provide a controlled means of closing the safety valve during the testing process. By tightening the two bolts of the Limit Force Device, operators can effectively close the safety valve in the event where the valve can not reseat due to corrosion.
