Hydraulic Fracturing Valves from Rupture Pin Technology

Harsh environments such as those in hydraulic fracturing operations need uncompromisingly safe pressure relief valves. Failure to invest in the right valve technology could cause irreversible damage to both your people and infrastructure. At Rupture Pin Technology, we have spent several years in designing a patented Rupture Pin-based valve that provides failsafe high pressure relief under the most demanding conditions. It is suitable for gas as well as liquid relief operations.

With rupture-related environmental liabilities having become more stringent in recent years, our Rupture Pin valves are a low cost insurance against air and ground pollution. And, it’s not just the fracking process that stands to benefit from this technology. Other challenging operations involving heavy-duty drilling and mud and slurry successfully use our high pressure valves. Here’s why:

• The rupture pin valve obeys Euler’s Law of Compressed Columns, thus providing instant response (in milliseconds) to over pressurization.
• They exceed ASME standards. ASME has set a variation tolerance of +/- 5% but the actual average variation of our valves—as seen during valve certifications—is +/-2% on an average.
• You can change the set pressures of a valve by simply changing the pin in a few seconds. Moreover, the pulsating pressure or extreme pressure variations bear no direct effect on the functioning of high pressure relief or emergency shut off valves based on the rupture pin technology.

All of these factors play a part in making our pressure relief valve a more effective and economical alternative to a rupture disk. Our products are designed to inspire confidence, whether in hydraulic fracturing valve or any other high-pressure applications.
