Pressure Relief Capability: The R215-9 valve is designed to relieve excess pressure in systems by opening at a predetermined set pressure.
This feature prevents catastrophic failures, equipment damage, and potential hazards.
Adjustable Set Pressure: The valve allows for adjustable set pressure, providing flexibility to accommodate different system requirements and operating conditions.
Rapid Response Time: The R215-9 valve is engineered to respond swiftly to pressure fluctuations, ensuring prompt relief and preventing pressure build-up.
High Flow Capacity: With its large flow path, this valve can handle high flow rates, enabling efficient relief of pressure in demanding applications.
Compact Design: The compact and lightweight design of the valve allows for easy installation and integration into existing systems.
Working Principle:
The R215-9 Travel Relief Valve operates based on the principle of spring force and hydraulic pressure. It consists of a valve body, spring, piston, and seat. When the system pressure exceeds the set pressure, the force exerted on the piston exceeds the spring force, causing the valve to open. This allows fluid to escape through the valve, reducing the pressure to a safe level. Once the pressure drops below the set pressure, the spring pushes the piston back into position, closing the valve and stopping the flow.
Construction:
The valve body of the R215-9 is typically made of high-quality materials such as stainless steel or brass to ensure durability and corrosion resistance. The internal components, including the piston, seat, and spring, are carefully selected to withstand high pressures and provide reliable performance over an extended service life. The valve is designed for easy maintenance, with accessible internals that can be inspected, cleaned, and replaced if necessary.
Performance Characteristics:
Pressure Rating: The R215-9 valve is capable of handling pressures up to a certain predetermined limit, typically ranging from a few hundred to several thousand pounds per square inch (psi).
Temperature Range: The valve can operate effectively within a specified temperature range, ensuring reliable performance even in extreme temperature conditions.
Leakage Rate: The R215-9 valve is designed to have a low leakage rate, minimizing the loss of fluid and preventing unnecessary system disruptions.
Accuracy: The valve provides accurate pressure relief at the set pressure, maintaining system stability and preventing over-pressurization.
Compliance: The R215-9 valve meets industry standards and regulations, ensuring its suitability for various industrial applications and facilitating seamless integration into existing systems.
