Hydraulic circuits
purpose of relief valve is to protect the high pressure pump from overpressure at the end of
stroke and when DCV is at central position. The check valve protects the low pressure pump
from high pressure.
What is the advantage of using an unloading circuit, when feed and speed of a machine
need to be varied?
When high speed is required during air cutting, high flow pump can be used to get
the rapid extension and cutting time is saved.
When cutting is taking place ( torque requirement is high), low flow pump can be
used
This circuit eliminates the necessity of having a very expensive high pressure, high
flow pump.
Synchronization circuit
An important feature of all pressure sequence valves is a separate drain connection from the
spring chamber. This is because, unlike a conventional relief valve, a high pressure can occur
in the output port during the normal course of operation. Should it be internally drained, any
pressure in the output port will be reflected back into the spring chamber causing a
malfunction. In fact a sequence valve may be used as a relief valve in any circuit here
excessive back pressures are encountered in the return line. The independently drained pilot
makes sequence valves insensitive to downstream back pressure.
