it controls the pressure
The purpose of a pressure relief valve in a geyser is to release the pressure created inside due to evaporation of water.
The set pressure is the pressure at which a relief valve starts to open. When the valve is open and relieving, the pressure will be higher or lower than the set pressure, depending on the system and the valve design. That is the blow-off pressure.
Part I-Sizing and Selection Downstream Segment API STANDARD 520 EIGHTH EDITION, DECEMBER 2008 huddling chamber: An annular chamber located downstream of the seat of a pressure relief valve for the purpose of assisting the valve to achieve lift.
You mean GLOBE valve and that would depend on the size of the valve and the maker
cold differential test pressure -The inlet static pressure at which a pressure relief valve is adjusted to open on the test stand. This test pressure includes corrections for service conditions of superimposed back pressure and/or temperature.
To regulate the pressure to a pre-determined amount.
Purpose of a pressure regulator is to match the flow of gas through the regulator to the demand of gas placed upon the system. It is a valve that can automatically cut off the fluid of a liquid at a certain pressure.

When the pressure becomes erratic time to replace
By a pressure regulating valve- or regulator.
To regulate the pressure to a pre-determined amount.

It is built into the oil pump.
Back pressure regulating valve is used in ammonia refrigeration plant to maintain the minimum pressure in the evaporator coils. It helps in preventing ice formation / choke upin the PHE chiller.
Pressure reducing valve reduces the pressure of fluid upto a predetermined pressure in this case downstream pressure will be obviously lower than upstream pressure but in case of pressure regulating valve it will regulate the pressure( either increase or decrease) depending on the requirement of system at that time.
The purpose of both the valves is same - that to maintain a certain level(in a vessel or tank...) Simple Level valve could be referred to an ON - OFF valve where as control valve could be referred to an analog type of valve. On - OFF valve is for a crude control of level, while control valve is used where a fine level control is needed.
