ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a safety closure apparatus for a pressure vessel, particularly for a vessel such as a pump stabilizer which has a gas compartment and a liquid compartment therein, both of which are normally pressurized. The apparatus includes a safety head configured to cover the closure means of the vessel to prevent its actuation; a liquid pressure bleed valve which must be removed before the safety hood can be moved off of the closure means, thereby insuring depressurization of the liquid compartment prior to opening; and gas pressure bleed means automatically operable upon movement of the safety hood off of the closure means, thereby also insuring depressurization of the gas compartment before access can be had to the closure means to actuate it to open the vessel.
