I had always been led to believe that the nameplate had to show the set pressure and capacity. Can you point me to documentation that shows this? As far as the new capacity, I do have an old manual with capacity charts that show the relief is within needed capacity. Thanks.

I have found an instance where many years ago our plant piping was raised to a higher pressure. I have found a relief that had the setpoint raised above the nameplate setpoint rating. There are no pressure or relieving capacity issues with this change, but I have always been under the...
