hahaha.... Great site!!! According to the site...
"In this case the pressure exceeds the preset spring pressure in
the dump valve and the excess pressure is bled off to atmosphere."
and now for the sentence that you kindly highlighted "Blow off
valves are sometimes incorrectly called dump valves."
Ok, what does the BOV do again? Vent into the atmosphere or
recirculate?
