ABSTRACT:
In the preferred and illustrated embodiment, a safety relief valve, subject to control of redundant pilot valves with a control system, is set forth. A safety relief valve is ordinarily installed in a fail safe circumstance; accordingly, this control system incorporates redundant pilot valves which respond independently of one another having outputs utilized in the control system to trigger operation of the safety relief valve. The control system has, in its preferred form, an elongate body mounting redundant pilot valves on common manifold passages. If any pilot valve forms a signal requiring operation of the safety relief valve, that signal for the safety relief valve adjusts the setting of the safety relief valve.
