Pressure Safety Valve Vs. Pressure Relief Valve

Pressure Safety Valve Vs. Pressure Relief Valve. Pressure safety valves and pressure relief valves are put into a system that may potentially be put into an over-pressurization situation. Without these valves, the system could potentially explode due to a pressure being reached the system was not designed to handle.

Pressure safety valves and pressure relief valves are put into a system that may potentially be put into an over-pressurization situation. Without these valves, the system could potentially explode due to a pressure being reached the system was not designed to handle.
Pressure Safety
Pressure safety valves are specifically designed keep people safe and have no other purpose. These valves typically drain the excess liquid or gas into a bilge or onto the floor.
Pressure Relief
The pressure relief valve is also designed to keep people safe, but typically drains into another system or even into itself. The relief valve just leads the excess back to a holding tank for later use.
Comparison
These two valves are essentially the same. They serve the same purpose but it's labeled safety valve if it does not interact with another system and pressure relief if it dumps into another system.
