The Sun Hydraulics RPIECBV (RPIECBV) is a fast-acting, pilot-operated, balanced piston relief cartridge designed for hydraulic systems requiring rapid response to pressure transients. As a normally closed, pressure-limiting valve, it protects hydraulic components by opening quickly when the inlet port pressure reaches the valve setting, thereby diverting flow to the tank port and limiting any further pressure increase. This model is known for its low pressure rise versus flow and quick response time of approximately 2 milliseconds. It features interchangeable design across all 2-port relief cartridges except pilot reliefs, allowing for easy integration into existing systems with similar flow paths and cavity sizes. The RPIECBV is suitable for use in cross port relief circuits and can handle maximum pressures at port 2; however, users should consider potential spool leakage in such applications. It incorporates a Sun floating style construction to reduce the risk of internal parts binding due to installation torque or machining variations. The main stage orifice is protected by a 150-micron stainless steel screen to ensure durability and performance. This cartridge offers a capacity of up to 100 gpm (380 L/min) and operates at pressures up to 5000 psi (350 bar). It requires an installation torque between 150-160 lbf ft (203-217 Nm) and features an adjustment screw with an internal hex size of 5/32 inches (4 mm), allowing fine-tuning with up to five clockwise turns to increase the setting. The RPIECBV is not recommended for load-holding applications due to potential spool leakage but serves effectively in various other hydraulic system applications requiring reliable overpressure protection.

Description

Fast-acting, pilot-operated, balanced piston relief cartridges are normally closed, pressure-limiting valves used to protect hydraulics components from pressure transients. Fast opening and closing is gained at the expense of smoothness. When the pressure at the inlet (port 1) reaches the valve setting, the valve starts to open to tank (port 2), throttling flow to limit the pressure rise. These valves have low pressure rise vs. flow and are very fast.

All 2-port relief cartridges (except pilot reliefs) are physically and functionally interchangeable (same flow path, same cavity for a given frame size).
Will accept maximum pressure at port 2; suitable for use in cross port relief circuits. If used in cross port relief circuits, consider spool leakage.
Main stage orifice is protected by a 150 micron stainless steel screen.
Not suitable for use in load holding applications due to spool leakage.
Back pressure on the tank port (port 2) is directly additive to the valve setting at a 1:1 ratio.
Incorporates the Sun floating style construction to minimize the possibility of internal parts binding due to excessive installation torque and/or cavity/cartridge machining variations.

Show FAQ

Where would I use a kick-down relief?	One graphic example is on a portable grain auger for silos. When the farmer gets caught in the auger the kick-down relief trips and allows him to escape.
What are the tolerances on pressure settings for Sun's pressure control valves?	Pressure setting tolerances are listed in our Performance Data page. A link to this page can also be found in the Additional Resources tab of the applicable product page.
How big is a drop of hydraulic oil?	There are exactly 250 Sun drops in a cubic inch or 15 in a cc.
Can I use a kick-down relief for my system relief?	Maybe not. We build in a good amount of overlap in the kick-down reliefs to prevent false tripping. This means they are not as fast as our standard pilot-operated reliefs. A direct-acting relief valve set just above the kick-down relief valve would be good insurance.
Direct acting or pilot operated - what do I use?	Direct-acting valves are used to prevent over pressure, and pilot-operated valves are used to regulate pressure. If you are unsure, use a direct-acting valve. Sun's direct acting valves are very fast, dirt tolerant, stable, and robust. Sun's pilot-operated valves are moderately fast, they have a low pressure rise vs. flow curve, and they are easy to adjust.
