Which risk increases when the bypass valve on a pressure relief valve fails to fully close?

💡 Explanation

When the bypass valve fails to fully close, constant leakage occurs because the valve is not properly seated, leading to a continuous flow path that prevents the system from reaching its designed pressure limits. Therefore, system over-pressurization results, rather than pump cycling, fluid hammer, or seat erosion which require different failure modes.
