RV08-20 Relief, Direct-Acting Poppet (RV08-20)
A screw-in, cartridge-style, direct-acting, poppet-type, hydraulic relief valve intended for lower flow circuits requiring low internal leakage.
Product Operation
The RV08-20 blocks flow from 1 to 2 until sufficient pressure is present at 1 to force the spring-opposed poppet from its seat.
Note: The RV08-20 may be used in cross-over relief applications (back pressure on 2) with the use of the “C” double back-up ring seal option. See Ordering Table.
Product Features
• Adjustments cannot be backed out of the valve.
• Adjustment options A, B, and C: positive stops prevent springs from going solid.
• Optional salt spray protection to meet 1000-hour specification (Prefix G).
• Optional spring ranges to 275.8 bar (4000 psi).
• Rapid response to pressure changes.
• Compact size.
