(d) Relief valves, tampering. Safety relief valves shall be so arranged that the possibility of tampering will be minimized; if pressure setting or adjustment is external, the relief valves shall be provided with approved means for sealing adjustment.

(e) Relief valve installation. No shutoff valves shall be installed between the safety relief valves and the container except that a shut-off valve may be used where the arrangement of this valve is such as always to afford full required capacity flow through the relief valves.

NOTE: The above exception is made to cover such cases as a three-way valve installed under two safety relief valves, each of which has the required relief valve area and is so

installed as to allow either of the safety relief valves to be closed off but does not allow both safety valves to be closed off at the same time. Another exception to this may be where two separate relief valves are installed with individual shut-off valves. In this case the two shut-off valve stems shall be mechanically interconnected in a manner which will allow full required flow of one relief valve at all times.

(f) Relief valve, vapor space. Safety relief valves shall have direct communication with the vapor space of the container.

(g) Relief valve markings. Each container safety valve shall be plainly and permanently marked with the pressure in pounds per sq. in. gauge at which the valve is set to start to discharge and the actual free discharge area in sq. in. of the valve at its full open position; for example, 200-24.
