  3. Chapter 6 Pressure Control Valves 6.1 Introduction Pressure control valves are classified as pressure relief valves, pressure reducing valves, sequence valves, and pressure switches. 6.2 Pressure relief valves Pressure relief valves limit/maintain the maximum pressure in a hydraulic circuit by diverting pump flow back to the tank. 6.2.1 Direct-acting pressure relief valve

  4. Chapter 6 Pressure Control Valves 1 Structure 2 Operating process When the hydraulic force is less than the spring force, the poppet remains on its seat and no flow pass through the valve. When the hydraulic force is greater than the spring force, the poppet will be forced off its seat, and fluid will flow back to the tank through port T.

  5. Chapter 6 Pressure Control Valves 3 Equilibrium equation Neglecting the poppet weight, friction force, and flow force, the static force equilibrium equation of the poppet is

  6. Chapter 6 Pressure Control Valves ps----starting pressure; pT----setting or predetermined level; Δp= pT-ps steady overshoot; 4 Characteristic curve attention The relief valve should be able to pass through the overall flow rate of the pump. 5 advantage and disadvantage The direct-acting pressure relief valve has a simple construction and a high sensitivity; however, it is not suitable for the application of high pressure and high flow rate.

  10. Chapter 6 Pressure Control Valves If p1 is very small, both close. As soon as p1 reaches the setting, it will force the pilot poppet off its seat. A small amount of flow begins to go through the pilot line and the piston orifice back to tank. (pilot valve opening) 4) Operating process When p1 further rises, the opening of the pilot valve further increases. As a result, the pressure drop of the camping orifice causes the piston to lift off its seat and the flow goes directly from the pressure port to the tank. (both valve opening) Measure and control quantity: inlet pressure

  11. Pilot valve: Chapter 6 Pressure Control Valves 5) Equilibrium equation Neglecting the poppet weight, friction force, and flow force, the static force balance equation of the poppet is if the Kxis very small and x0>>x, thus p2≈Kxx0/A3（constant） main valve: ΣFy= Ky(y0+y) -p1A1+p2A2=0 That is p1=Ky(y0+y)/A1 +p2A2 /A1 if the Kyis very small and y0>>y, thus p1≈Kyy0/A1 + (Kxx0/As) A2 /A1 （constant）

  12. 6) Remotely adjusting pressure The pilot relief valve is set for the maximum pressure that the circuit is designed. The remote relief valve is set to a lower pressure dictated by the current operating parameters. When s is energized, the systematic pressure is set by the remote pilot relief valve When s is de-energized, the systematic pressure is set by the pilot relief valve.

  13. Chapter 6 Pressure Control Valves 7) Unloading the pump When the vent port is connected to tank via a solenoid directional control valve, the system will be able to be unloaded. (only the main valve opening) 8) advantage The pilot-operated relief valve usually is smaller than a direct-acting relief valve for the same flow and pressure ratings.

  20. Chapter 6 Pressure Control Valves 6.4 Sequence valves Sequence valves cause a hydraulic system to operate in a pressure sequence. They are used to control the order of various actuators of a hydraulic system. As soon as the inlet pressure reaches a preset pressure value, the sequence valve will open and let oil pass to a secondary circuit. Sequence valves have two types—direct-acting and pilot-operated. They can also be classified as internal control and external control types according to where the control pressure is from.

  23. Summary

  24. Chapter 6 Pressure Control Valves 6.6.1 Pressure regulation circuit In a fixed displacement pump system, the supply pressure of a hydraulic pump is regulated by a pressure relief valve. In a variable displacement pump system, a pressure relief valve is used as a safety valve to limit the systematic maximum pressure and prevent a system from overloading. When a system needs more than two pressure levels, a multi-pressure regulation circuit is used. 6.6.1.1 Single stage pressure regulation circuit The supply pressure of pump can be regulated by adjusting the pressure relief valve. The setting pressure of pressure relief valve must be more than the sum of hydraulic cylinder maximum pressure and all pressure losses in the circuit.
