Popping pressure
Redirection of flow by lifting aid. The huddling chamber generates opening forces which let the safety valve pop.05_Definition_USA May 2005

The safety valve reaches the maximum lift. Increasing pressure in the vessel would cause higher overpressure of the safety valve.
Pressure increases up to that level of capacity to be dischargedMax. proportional lift range
