The Sun Hydraulics RVESKBV (RVESKBV) is a ventable, pilot-operated, balanced-poppet relief cartridge designed to regulate pressure in hydraulic systems. This normally closed valve opens when the inlet pressure reaches a predetermined setting, allowing flow to the tank port and maintaining system pressure. It features a vent port for remote control, providing versatility in load-holding applications with zero-leak valving on the vent port. The valve excels in cross-port relief circuits and is effective under varying oil temperatures and contamination levels. Its construction protects against cavitation-related issues such as noise and erosion. The main stage orifice is safeguarded by a 150-micron stainless steel screen, ensuring durability and reliability. The RVESKBV model operates at a maximum pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar) with a capacity of 25 gpm (95 L/min). It offers precise control with a response time of approximately 2 milliseconds and minimal leakage at reseat conditions. The valve's adjustment mechanism allows for fine-tuning with up to 5.5 clockwise turns to increase the setting, while its robust design minimizes binding risks due to installation variations. Installation requires specific torque values for both the valve and locknut, ensuring secure placement within hydraulic systems. This cartridge is equipped with Sun's floating style construction, enhancing its adaptability across various applications by reducing internal part binding risks. Its compact size and weight of 1.60 lb (0.70 kg) make it suitable for integration into diverse hydraulic setups where efficient pressure regulation is crucial. The RVESKBV model also includes compatibility with Viton seal kits for enhanced sealing performance under challenging conditions.

Description

Ventable, pilot-operated, balanced-poppet relief cartridges are normally closed pressure regulating valves. When the pressure at the inlet (port 1) reaches the valve setting, the valve starts to open to tank (port 2), throttling flow to regulate the pressure. They provide a vent port (port 3) that connects between the main piston and pilot stage to provide for remote control by other pilot or 2-way valves. These valves are accurate, have low pressure rise vs. flow, they are smooth and quiet, and are moderately fast.

Because the modulating occurs inside the cartridge, these valves are immune to most of the problems associated with cavitation, namely noise and manifold erosion.
Suitable for use in load holding applications, providing that any valving on the vent port (port 3) is zero leak.
Will accept maximum pressure at port 2; suitable for use in cross port relief circuits.
A remote pilot relief on port 3 (vent) will control the valve below its own setting.
Valve is relatively insensitive to varying oil temperatures and oil borne contamination.
Main stage orifice is protected by a 150 micron stainless steel screen.
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.
