▲ WARNING
Failure to follow these instructions or
to properly install and maintain this
equipment could result in an explosion,
fire and/or fire causing property damage
and personal injury or death.
Fisher™ relief valves must be installed,

and regulations and Emerson Process
Management Regulator Technologies Inc.
(Emerson) instructions.
A person should never stand directly
over or in front of or look directly into a
relief valve when the tank is pressurized.
The relief valve could suddenly “pop”
open blowing gas, dirt and other debris
into the person’s face and eyes.
Call a qualified service person to service
the unit. Installation, operation and
maintenance procedures performed
by unqualified person may result
in improper adjustment and unsafe
operation. Either condition may result in
equipment damage or personal injury.
Only a qualified person shall install or

Introduction
Scope of the Manual
This manual provides specications, installation,
maintenance instructions and parts ordering
information for the H200 Series.
Only personnel qualied through training or experience
should install, operate and maintain this relief valve. If
there are any questions concerning these instructions,
contact your local Emerson Impact Partner O󰀩ce
before proceeding.
Product Description
The H200 Series Pop™ relief valves, Figures 1 and 2,
are self-operated relief valves with preset and pinned
spring retainers. The inlet pressure registers directly
on a spring opposed poppet assembly which includes
a Nitrile (NBR) disk. When the inlet gas pressure
increases above the spring setting, the poppet and disk
assembly is pushed away from the orifice. Springs
are available that provide any relief pressure setting
from 25 to 300 psig / 1.7 to 20.7 bar.
With this simple operation and wide spring setting
selection, the H200 Series Pop relief valves
may be used where venting to atmosphere is
acceptable, where the process gas is compatible
with the Nitrile (NBR) disk, where its relief capacity
is adequate and where some pressure relieving
tolerance is acceptable. Common applications
include use on pneumatic control lines of air drills,
jackhammers and other similar equipment and on
farm tap installations. The H200 Series is comprised
of the Types H202 and H203 relief valves with the
di󰀨erence being in the inlet connection size.

W0120_1
Principle of Operation
The relief valve (See Figure 1) is held close by the
spring force seating the rubber valve disc against
the orifice.
When the tank pressure exceeds the spring force, the
valve disc lifts off the orifice allowing gas to discharge
through the valve to the air.
Gas discharge initially may be small producing only
seepage and a light “hissing” sound. As pressure
increases and gas volume discharge continues, a
“popping” condition occurs with large volumes of gas
discharge and a loud “hissing or roaring” sound.
When the tank pressure decreases enough, the
spring force closes the valve disc back against the
orifice stopping further discharge
Installation
▲ WARNING
Vapor relief valves must be installed
only in the vapor space to provide relief
capacity for the tank.
This relief valve may be installed in any position but
must be oriented so that gas discharged from the
valve does not create a re, toxic or explosion hazard.
The relief valve should be protected from material and
conditions that could clog the outlet side of the valve
and a󰀨ect the venting of gas.
A typical installation is shown in Figure 3. A Type P145
raincap is recommended for use with any H200 Series
relief valve.
The relief valve and installation should be checked for
compliance with all applicable codes.
Maintenance
Safety relief valves are non-repairable valves and
cannot be adjusted in the field.
▲ WARNING
Any valve that has fully opened “popped”
should be tested to see if it is within the
allowable start-to-discharge pressure
setting. If it is not within the correct
range, it must be replaced. Relief
valve start-to-discharge and reseat
pressures may be lower if the valve has
fully opened (popped).
It is recommended that all relief valves be regularly
inspected for visible damage, dirt, corrosion, missing
raincaps, paint inside outlet, tampering, etc. If any of
the preceding is evident or questionable, the valve
should be re-tested or replaced immediately.
The discharge side of the relief valve body must be
kept free of dirt, water and other foreign matter which
can damage the valve seat or “weld” some “wing style”
poppets to the valve body. This can prevent the valve
from opening. Replace valves when this occurs.
