Achievement Case Study: Vytal Controls

We Are an IBR Certified Valve Manufacturing Company

Background

In critical industries such as boiler, power and process plants, safety valves are the final line of defense against pressure build-up. Their performance is directly tied to plant safety, efficiency, and compliance. Vytal Controls has always prioritized innovation backed with rigorous testing and international standards.

Challenge

To validate the safety valve’s discharge coefficient and ensure to comply with ASME standards while also achieving approval from the Indian Boiler Regulations (IBR). This required not only precision engineering but also real-world experimental validation under plant conditions.

Approach

Test Bench Creation:

A dedicated test bench was developed and installed directly within a working power plant environment. This setup allowed the valve to be tested under live operating conditions, ensuring results were both accurate and practical.

Performance Check Criteria:

  • Valve response under sudden pressure changes
  • Accuracy of set pressure and reseating pressure
  • Discharge coefficient consistency
  • Reliability under continuous operation

Live Data Validation:

The safety valve was connected and monitored on the bench to fetch live data. The testing process was overseen in alignment with IBR standards and under the directives provided by the Chief Inspector of Boiler, Gujarat.

Achievement

  • Certified by IBR: After successful experimental trials, the valve achieved IBR confirmation, making Vytal Controls one of the few companies to gain such validation.
  • ASME Compliance: The valve’s performance met the criteria defined by ASME (The American Society of Mechanical Engineers).
  • Confirmed Results: The discharge coefficient was officially recorded at C = 0.4, affirming the precision and reliability of Vytal’s engineering.

Technical Highlights

  • Low capital cost
  • High dependability
  • Ability to maximise operating pressure for optimum system output
  • Quality assurance program complies with ASME & API code
  • Guaranteed delivery dates
  • Proved in tens of thousands of installations worldwide
