PRESSURE RELIF VALAVE
pressure relief valves are found in almost every hydraulic circuit. It is normally
closed valve and it is connected between the pressure line (after pump) and the
oil reservoir.
• Main function of pressure relief valve :
Its main function is to limit the pressure in the system and thus to protect
the individual component and hydraulic oj carrying lines from overload and
danger of bursting. It is a safety valve. It takes care of safety of the hydraulic
system.
• Construction:
It consists of a valve body in which valve element (cone or ball) is fitted with
spring, The compression of spring can be adjusted by pressure setting
screw. There are two ports, P is pressure port connected to pump and R is
off return port connected to
'reservoir,
• Working :
The valve element is seated in valve body by the compressive force of
spring. When inlet pressure of oil is insufficient to overcome spring force,
valve will remain close.(No flow from port {p} to {R}. Hence normally this
valve closed when pressure of input oil through port (P) increases due to
some unpredicted blockages, then this increased pressure of oil will
overcome the spring force and will lift the valve element in upward
direction by compressing the spring. Due to lifting of valve element port P
will be uncovered and flow from port (P) to port (R) will start. Since port (R)
is connected to the oi reservoir, the oil will be discharged into it. This flow
will continue unless and until system pressure falls below the set valve.
Then again spring force will be dominating and value will close. The
pressure level in the system is thus controlled by spring force.
