TS38-20 Proportional Electric Relief Valve (TS38-20)
A screw-in, cartridge-style, direct acting, poppet-type hydraulic relief valve, which can be infinitely adjusted across a prescribed range using a variable electric input. Pressure output is proportional to DC current input. This valve is intended for use as a pressure limiting device in demanding applications.
Product Operation
The TS38-20 blocks flow from 1 to 2 until sufficient pressure is present at 1 to offset the electrically induced solenoid force. With no current applied to the solenoid, the valve will free flow from 1 to 2.
Note: Back pressure on port 2 becomes additive to the pressure setting at a 1:1 ratio.
The optional manual override allows the valve to be set when the electric supply is lost. The manual setting is added to the electric setting. To prevent the system from being over pressurized, the manual override should always be disengaged prior to applying power to the coil.
