Pressure Override Equation |
Poveride= Pfull flow - Pcracking |
|
Pressure reducing valve allows _____ _____ branches in _____ _____ system |
lower pressure high pressure |
|
How does a pressure reducing valve operate? |
Rising pressure reduces an orifice's area, creating higher exit velocity >> lower pressure |
|
Relief valve: -Senses pressure _____ -_____ attached to branch circuit -Valve normally _____ -Outlet normally at _____ pressure |
-upstream -inlet -closed -atmospheric |
|
Pressure reducing valve: -Senses pressure _____ -_____ attached to branch circuit -Valve normally _____ -Outlet normally at _____ pressure |
-downstream -outlet -open -branch circuit |
|
Unloading valve |
Used as a low pressure path for a pump (similar to a mechanical clutch) |
|
Counterbalance valve |
Prevents a load from falling too fast |
|
Brake valve |
Prevents motor from overrunning (caused by reducing fluid flow but the load wants to keep spinning at the previous speed) |
|
Sequence valve |
Cylinders must operate in a certain order, rather than by lowest pressure |
|
Pressure control valves are used for: |
-safety -limiting branch pressure -directing flow to low pressure -preventing excessive speeds -prevent load from overrunning -order of operations |
|
What type of valve: -safety -limiting branch pressure -directing flow to low pressure -preventing excessive speeds -prevent load from overrunning -order of operations |
relief pressure reducing unloading counterbalance brake sequence |
