DESCRIPTION
A screw-in, cartridge-style, direct-acting, differential area poppet-type hydraulic
relief valve for use as a pressure limiting device in more demanding hydraulic
circuits, requiring low hysteresis and low internal leakage.
OPERATION
The RV10-22 blocks fl ow from to until suffi cient pressure is present at to
force the poppet from its seat.
The cartridge offers smooth transition in response to load changes in common
hydraulic circuits.
Note: The RV10-22 may be used in cross-over relief applications (back pressure
on
) with the use of the “C” double back-up ring seal option. See Ordering Table.
FEATURES
Adjustments cannot be backed out of the valve.
Adjustment options A, B, and C: positive stops prevent springs from going solid.
Hardened poppet and cage for long life.
Optional spring ranges to 241 bar (3500 psi).
Smooth response to pressure surges.
Industry common cavity.
RATINGS
Operating Pressure: 241 bar (3500 psi)
Flow: The Performance Chart illustrates fl ow handling capacity at maximum setting
for each spring range option. Pressure rise will vary with spring (range) and with
setting within range due to fl ow forces. Consult factory for specifi c fl ow
characteristic values.
Pressure Rise: 0.34 bar/l (5 psi/g)
Internal Leakage: 0.25 cc/minute (5 drops/minute) max. to 85% of nominal setting
Crack (Set) Pressure Defi ned: bar (psi) evident at 0.95 lpm (0.25 gpm) attained
Standard Spring Ranges: Due to manufacturing tolerances, it may be possible to
adjust the valve either lower or higher than the nominal ratings shown below.
Temperature: -40 to 120°C
Filtration: See page 9.010.1
Fluids: Mineral-based or synthetics with lubricating properties at viscosities of
7.4 to 420 cSt (50 to 2000 sus); See Temperature and Oil Viscosity, page 9.060.1
Installation: No restrictions; See page 9.020.1
Cavity: VC10-2; See page 9.110.1
Cavity Tool: CT10-2XX; See page 8.600.1
Seal Kit: SK10-2X-T; See page 8.650.1; SK10-2X-M (for cross-over relief application)
