ABSTRACT:
The high pressure of a gas transport network must be reduced before the gas is admitted to a distribution network to which consumers, e.g. household appliances are connected.
This reduction is carried out by a gas pressure control installation. If this installation fails, conduit failure, appliance failure, explosion and fire may occur.
A known safety device has a closing spring, which closes a valve if the gas pressure unacceptably rises which causes release of the spring by the gas pressure. The movement releasing the spring is influenced by friction which may have an uncertain value. The invention eliminates friction in that the reduced gas pressure acts on the valve via spring loaded membranes, namely a measuring membrane and an actuating membrane.
