Adherence to ISO 4126-9 ensures that:
ISO 4126-9:2008 establishes mandatory requirements for the application and installation of pressure relief safety devices, excluding stand-alone bursting discs, on static pressure equipment. It covers the proper installation of safety valves, pilot-operated valves, and controlled systems, including critical guidelines for inlet/outlet piping and mounting to ensure system reliability. Official documentation and copies of the standard are available through the ISO Online Browsing Platform . Iso 4126-9 Pdf
: To prevent "chatter" or unstable operation, the total pressure drop in the inlet line should typically not exceed 3% of the device's set pressure. Outlet Line Design : Consideration must be given to back pressure Adherence to ISO 4126-9 ensures that: ISO 4126-9:2008

For large capacity requirements, ISO 4126-9 discusses the use of multiple safety valves. This is often preferred to reduce the size of individual valves and to provide redundancy. The standard details how to set the pressures of multiple valves (staggered settings) to keep the system pressure within allowable accumulation limits.
The standard differentiates between:
