The Sun Hydraulics RVITLAV (RVITLAV) is a ventable, pilot-operated, anti-shock relief cartridge designed to limit maximum system pressure and control the rate of pressure rise. This valve is particularly suitable for cross-port relief circuits, providing protection for hydrostatic drives by reducing jerks caused by sudden reversals. The RVITLAV features a vent port that allows remote control via other pilot or 2-way valves, with an adjustment screw to set the maximum relief and minimum threshold settings. Notably, it opens when inlet port pressure exceeds the threshold setting and ramps closed at a constant speed, independent of settings and flows. The valve is immune to cavitation issues such as noise and manifold erosion due to its internal modulating capabilities. With a capacity of 120 gpm (480 L/min), this valve can handle a maximum operating pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar). It has a typical response time of 2 ms and a pressure ramp-up time between 400 to 850 ms. The RVITLAV incorporates Sun's floating style construction, minimizing internal part binding risks due to excessive installation torque or machining variations. With a factory pressure setting established at 4 gpm (15 L/min), it offers precise control with an adjustment range facilitated by five clockwise turns to increase the setting. The valve's physical specifications include a hex size of 1-5/8 inches (41.3 mm) for installation torque between 350-375 lbf ft (474-508 Nm) and an internal hex size for adjustment screws measuring 5/32 inches (4 mm). Additionally, it weighs approximately 3.10 lb (1.40 kg) and features contamination protection for its main stage orifice. While not suitable for load-holding applications, its robust design makes it ideal for systems requiring reliable anti-shock relief functions.

Description

Ventable, pilot-operated, anti shock relief cartridges limit maximum system pressure and also limit the rate of pressure rise. The valve opens and then ramps closed at a constant speed, independent of settings and flows. These 3 port valves include a vent port (port 3) that connects between the main piston and the pilot stage to provide for remote control by other pilot or 2-way valves. The adjust screw determines the maximum (relief) setting and the minimum (threshold) setting.

Because the modulating occurs inside the cartridge, these valves are immune to most of the problems associated with cavitation, namely noise and manifold erosion.
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.
Not suitable for use in load holding applications.
When pressure at the inlet (port 1) exceeds the threshold setting, the valve opens to tank (port 2). The pilot section moves forward at a steady rate, increasing the setting by compressing the pilot spring. Maximum setting is achieved when the pilot section reaches a mechanical stop.
Valve provides protection for hydrostatic drives by reducing the jerk caused by sudden reversals. The valve is suitable for cross-port applications.
When used with a switching device, the valve can provide the ramp characteristic typically provided by proportional valves.
Small power units can be started against an anti shock relief to provide longer pump life.
Back pressure on the tank port (port 2) is directly additive to the valve setting at a 1:1 ratio.
The main stage orifice is protected against contamination.
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.
