LESER Type 811/821 Safety Relief Valve
Product Overview
The LESER Type 811/821 Pilot-Operated Safety Relief Valves are designed for precision pressure relief and environmental safety in high-pressure industrial systems. The Type 811 features pop action for rapid gas relief, while the Type 821’s modulate action ensures proportional opening, reducing emissions and noise for vapor, gas, and liquid applications. Fully compliant with API 526, these valves offer exceptional tightness up to 97% of set pressure and operate reliably up to 426 bar. Their robust design and integrated backflow preventer make them ideal for critical applications in petrochemicals, energy, and LNG/LPG industries, prioritizing both safety and environmental responsibility.
Key Features
- Precision Control: Type 811 (Pop Action) for rapid gas relief, Type 821 (Modulate Action) for proportional opening with reduced emissions.
- Environmental Safety: Non-flowing pilot design minimizes media loss and emissions.
- API 526 Compliance: Ensures seamless integration with industry-standard systems.
- High Tightness: Maintains tightness up to 97% of set pressure for enhanced safety.
- Robust Back Pressure Capability: Handles back pressures up to 70% of set pressure.
- Durable Materials: Constructed with SA 216 WCB, SA 351 CF8M, and optional Monel or Hastelloy.
- Integrated Safety Features: Backflow preventer and supplementary loading system for operational reliability.
- Low Maintenance: Designed for extended valve life with minimal media flow through the pilot.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Type 821 reduce emissions?
Its modulate action opens proportionally to overpressure, minimizing product loss and emissions.
Are these valves suitable for high-pressure systems?
Yes, they handle pressures up to 426 bar (6179 psig) for Type 821 and 256 bar (3705 psig) for Type 811.
What is the benefit of the backflow preventer?
It enhances safety by preventing reverse flow, integrated as a standard component.
Can these valves be tested during operation?
Yes, the supplementary loading system allows function testing and adjustment without downtime.
What materials are available for harsh environments?
Options include Monel and Hastelloy for corrosion-resistant applications.
