Enerpac V152 pressure relief valve is a safety device that helps protect hydraulic systems from excessive pressure by diverting the fluid flow when the pressure exceeds a predetermined limit.
Working Mechanism:
- Enerpac pressure relief valve works by sensing the pressure within a system and, when that pressure exceeds a predetermined threshold, opens a passage to redirect or release the excess fluid. This prevents potential damage to the system and its components due to overpressure. When the pressure reaches the valve's setpoint, the valve's spring or other mechanism is overcome, allowing the valve to open and divert the excess fluid. This diversion can direct the fluid back to the reservoir, bypass it to a lower-pressure line, or vent it to the atmosphere. Once the pressure decreases to a safe level, the valve closes, restoring normal operation.
Features:
- Enerpac V152 pressure relief valve has an adjustment range of 800 to 10000 psi, allowing the user to set the desired pressure level and offers +/- 3% repeatability, ensuring consistent performance.
- This valve has a pressure setting that can be increased by turning the handle clockwise for easy pressure adjustment.
- It has an oil flow rate of 1830 cubic inch per minute, enabling efficient fluid movement within the hydraulic system.
- This pressure relief valve features NPT or SAE ports to ensure a tight seal and prevent leakage at rated pressure levels.
- It can be easily installed in any hydraulic system, facilitating integration into existing setups.
