Requirements for the design, selection and flow certification of safety valves for use with process fluids.
Requirements for the design, inspection, testing and flow certification of safety valves for air receivers and compressed air or inert gases.
This specification establishes design validation requirements for API 6A surface safety/underwater safety valves (SSV/USV) and associated valve bore sealing mechanism(s) for Class II and Class III. These classes are intended for use if substances such as sand can be...
This International Standard establishes requirements and provides guidelines for configuration, installation, test, operation and documentation of subsurface safety valve (SSSV) systems. In addition, this International Standard establishes requirements and provides guidelines for...
Specifies requirements for safety valves for boiler installations and associated pipework where the steam pressure exceeds 1 bar gauge or, in the case of hot water boilers , where the rating is 44 kW and above.
One of the means of assuring positive wellstrean shutoff is the use of the wellhead surface safety valve (SSV) or underwater safety valve (USV). It is imperative that the SSV/USV be mechanically reliable. It should therefore be operated, tested and maintained in a manner...

This Guide provides guidance on establishing operating periods of safety valves and gives further information, beyond the relatively simple statements contained in national codes, to provide a basis for the review of such operating periods. It covers a number of points which may be...
Tis Standardcifies requments for full borafety valves with a set pressure of 0.1 mpA (guage pressure)1) and above and with a throat diameter of 7 mm and above, and curtain area restricted safety valves with a valves seat opening diameter of 15 mm and above. This Standard...
This International Standard provides the minimum acceptable requirements for subsurface safety valves (SSSVs). It covers subsurface safety valves including all components that establish tolerances and/or clearances which may affect performance or interchangeability of...
This European Standard specifies dimensions, materials, and performance requirements (including methods of test) for pressure safety valves, of nominal sizes from DN 15 to DN 40, having working pressures from 0,1 MPa (1 bar) to 1,0 MPa (10 bar). Pressure safety valves...
ISO 10432:2004 provides the minimum acceptable requirements for subsurface safety valves (SSSVs). It covers subsurface safety valves including all components that establish tolerances and/or clearances which may affect performance or interchangeability of the SSSVs. It...
