Genebre 2253 Safety Valve with Lever
The Genebre 2253 is an angle-type spring-loaded safety valve constructed from stainless steel, featuring threaded connections and a manual lift lever. Designed for gas or steam service; not intended for continuous bypass regulation. Set pressure is factory-adjusted and sealed.
Technical Specifications

Standards and Discharge Capacities
Design and calculation per EN 12516 and EN ISO 4126-1/7. Technical datasheet provides discharge capacities for air at 20°C and saturated steam, with 10% overpressure and orifice sizes 13, 14, 16, 20, 28, and 32 mm.
Open vs Closed Cap Versions
Type 2253 features an open cap and test lever. Selected where periodic manual lift testing is required for operational verification. For hazardous, toxic, or non-ventable gases, evaluate if a closed or gastight design is necessary.
Typical Applications
- small and medium diameter steam networks
- steam manifolds and thermal skids
- process gas lines
- stainless steel piping with threaded connections
- equipment requiring lift test without disassembly
FAQ
Is it suitable for water?
The datasheet specifies use for gas or steam. Liquid service requires technical evaluation.
Is an actuator required?
No. Operation is by process pressure and spring force.
What affects tightness?
Particulates, scale, condensate at outlet, and frequent opening near set pressure.
Description
Certificates
GENEBRE, S.A. has implemented a quality management system to control the designing and manufacturing of fluid control valves, as well as the distribution of home and public taps.
This system complies with the requirements of the current international UNE-EN-ISO 9001:2015, certified by the prestigious German certification organization TÜV Rheinland.
In 2000, GENEBRE began to comply with the European Business Excellence Model, more commonly known as the EFQM. As a result, in 2003, the Catalan Regional Government awarded us with the Quality Award. This new system enables us to ensure the quality of GENEBRE's products and also to offer added value to our clients.
In 2012, we obtained the certification for the Environmental Management System. This system is certified according to the UNE-EN-ISO 14001:2015, also by TÜV Rheinland. GENEBRE QUALITY AND ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY
